% decrease = change/original price x 100%
= (1200 - 900)/1200 x 100%
= 300/1200 x 100%
= 25%

Therefore, the number of pumpkins sold decreased by 25%.

Find the equation of the line passing through points (-4,2) and (1,-6)
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

y + 6 = (-8/5)(x - 1) in point-slope form

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving from the 1st point to the first, we see that x (the 'run') increases by 5 from -4 to 1, and y (the 'rise') decreases by 8.  Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise / run = -8/5

Now we have two points on the line, plus the slope.  Let's write out the point-slope formula for the equation of a straight line:

y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) is a point on the line and m is the slope of the line.

Here, using the point (1, -6), we obtain:

y + 6 = (-8/5)(x - 1) in point-slope form

the sum of the first 6 terms of a geometric series is 15624 and the common ratio is 5. what is the first term of the series?
9966 [12]

Answer:

first term a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the first 6 terms S6 = 15624

common ratio r= 5

n= 6

first term a=?

Formula: S6= a(r^n-1)/r-1

15624 = a( 5^6-1)/5-1

15624 = a(15625-1)/4

15624= a( 15624)÷4

15624= 15624a÷4

Cross multiply

15624×4 = 15624a

62496 = 15624a

divide both sides by 15624

62496÷15624 = 15624a÷15624

4 = a

a= 4

Cloud [144]

Answer:

q = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where q is the unknown number:

q + 11 = -15

Solve for q by subtracting 11 from both sides:

q + 11 = -15

q = -26
