y = $185.30

x = the orignal cost minus 9% or .09. To increase an objects value by 9% you need to multiply by 1 + .09 or 1.09. So, x being increases by 9% would equal y or $185.30

1.09x = y

1.09x = $185.30

Divide both sides by 1.09

x = $170

Erin has scanned a 4 × 5-inch postcard, and she wants to reduce it to make a graphic for her Web site. She will use a scale fact
Rasek [7]
Just multiply both dimensions by 2 to make it into centimeters.

Therefore,

4*2 x 5*2 (in inches) will be:

8cm x 10cm (in centimeters)

We conclude that the dimensions of her postcard into a graphic on her web page will be 8x10 in centimeter units. 

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

What is the equation of a line that passes through points (2,0) and (6,-4)
romanna [79]

Answer:

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the equation of a line

Step 1: find the slope

We are given two points

( 2 , 0) ( 6 , -4)

m = (y_2 - y_1 )/ (x_2 - x_1)

x_1 = 2

y_1 = 0

x_2 = 6

y_2 = -4

Insert the values

m = ( -4 - 0) / ( 6 - 2)

m = -4 / 4

m = -1

Step 2 : substitute m into the equation

y = mx + c

y = -1x + c

Step 3: substitute any of the two points into the equation

Let's pick ( 6 , -4)

x = 6

y = -4

y = mx + c

y = -1x + c

-4 = -1(6) + c

-4 = -6 + c

c = -4 + 6

c = 2

Step 4: substitute c = 2 into the equation

y = mx + c

y = -x + c

y = -x + 2

Please help quick i get brainliest

Question 1:
If you know that 3 squares equals 7 circles and the squares are being counted by 3, then continue to count the circle by 3 until you get 25 circles.
Example:
3 Squares : 7 circles
4 squares : 10 circles
5 squares : 13 circles 
6 squares : 16 circles
7 squares : 19 circles
8 squares : 22 circles
9 squares : 25 circles       Add 9 squares to 3 = 12
You will have 12 squares when continues to count all the way to 25 circles.

Question 2:
Just multiply 14 by 28 and you will get your answer. Which is 3. The missing digit's 3. You can then check by doing 392 ÷ 14 to see if you get 28.
