Firstly, we need to calculate the difference between original cost and the discounted cost which would be $20 - $12 = $8 hence the discount is $8. To get to know the percentage, we need to take the difference amount i.e. $8 divided by original price $20 = 0.4 x 100 = 40%

How would you graph this????Plz help
mylen [45]
\bf 2x-5=3\implies 2x=3+5\implies x=\cfrac{8}{2}\implies x=4

now.. to graph that

let us make a quick table
\bf \begin{array}{lrlll}
x&y\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
4&-\infty \\
4&-1,000,000,000\\
4&-1,000,000\\
4&-1,000\\
4&-100\\
4&-10\\
4&-1\\
4&0\\
4&1\\
4&10\\
4&100\\
4&1,000\\
4&1,000,000\\
4&1,000,000,000\\
4&+\infty 
\end{array}

so.. you can either plot those points there on the table,
or just bear in mind x = 4, no matter what "y" is,
namely, x = 4 is just a vertical line at x = 4 :)

PLEASE HELP IM STUCK
gregori [183]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

look at the hint: slope (most call it gradient) = change in y/change in x

so you take 2 x and y variables and subtract

15 - 9 = 6   ← change in y

0 - 2 = -2   ← change in x

slope (gradient) = 6/-2

slope (gradient) = -3
