Answer:

  $125

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 20% off coupon, the price you pay is 80% of the marked price. If that amount is $100, you have ...

  $100 = 0.80p

  p = $100/0.80 = $125

The maximum price of the shoes you can buy is $125.

_____

<em>Check</em>

20% of $125 is -.20×$125 = $25. When that is subtracted, the price you pay is ...

  $125 -25 = $100

Answer:

$125

Step-by-step explanation:

let the maximum price be 'x'

x -( \frac{20}{100} \times x) = 100

x - ( \frac{x}{5} ) = 100

\frac{4x}{5}  = 100

4x = 500

x = 125

The slope of the line below is -1/7.
KatRina [158]

Answer:

y = (-1/7)x + (24/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

You have been given the value of the slope (m = -1/7). You have also been given values for "x" and "y" from the point (3,3). Therefore, you can substitute these values in for their variables and simplify to find the value of the y-intercept.

y = mx + b                                    <----- Slope-intercept form

y = (-1/7)x + b                                <----- Plug -1/7 into "m"

3 = (-1/7)(3) + b                             <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from point (3,3)

3 = -3/7 + b                                  <----- Multiply -1/7 and 3

24/7 = b                                      <----- Add 3/7 to both sides

Now that you know that m = -1/7 and b = 24/7, you can determine the formula satisfying the given information.

y = (-1/7)x + (24/7)

Write whether the scenario represents a linear function or an exponential function? Explain why.
Ad libitum [116K]
The scenario represents a linear function. The rate is at a constant increase therefore it is linear.

Linear because it’s a constant rate

Since it’s doubled, and doesn’t go at a constant rate, it is a exponential function

Exponential since it increases by a multiplicative rate. It’s not constant
