Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage, you need to set up a proportion:

\frac{x}{100} =\frac{24}{80},

so solving for x we get 80x=2400  (cross-multiplication)

x=30

So, they raised the price by 30%.

The initial value is where the line intersects the y-axis. So, this does it at y = 2. The graph has a slope (rate of change) of 1, because for every x-value, the y-value goes up by exactly 1. So, the answer is C.

Solve the equation for y.<br> 2x + 5y = 5<br> y=x +1<br> y= -10% + 25<br> y=22+1<br> y=x +5
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

y=-2/5x+1

y=x+1

y=249/10

y=23

y=x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

y=x+5

Step 1: Flip the equation.

x+5=y

Step 2: Add -5 to both sides.

x+5+−5=y+−5

x=y−5

Answer:

x=y−5

In 1980, the number of high school dropouts in a country was 5217 thousand. By 2008, this number had decreased to 3120 thousand.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

74893 students per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The Average rate of change is calculated as

= Difference in number of students / Difference in years

= 3120 thousand - 5217 thousands/ 2008 - 1980

= (3120000 - 5217000)/(2008 - 1980)

= -2097000/28

= -74892.857143 per year

Therefore, the average rate of change

per year in the number of high school dropouts is approximately 74893 students per year
