C. 19.42% because you subtract 389.85 from 314.15 which equals 75.7. So then set it up like an algebraic equation. 389.85x=75.7 divide 75.7 by 389.85 to find the decimal. Then you have to move the decimal to the right two places, since it is a percentage. And then round your answer, so c. 19.42% is your answer. Hope this helped! :)

Answer: C. 19.42 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the initial price of the necklace = $ 389.85,

Final price of the necklace = $ 314.15,

Total discount in the price  = 389.85 - 314.15 = $ 75.7

Since,

\text{ The discount percentage}=\frac{\text{ Total discount}}{\text{Initial price}}\times 100

=\frac{75.7}{389.85}\times 100

=\frac{7570}{389.85}=19.4177248\approx 19.42\%

Hence, The price decreased 19.42%.

⇒ Option C is correct.

IRINA_888 [86]

The degree is 1

It is a linear function

m = -5 and b = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the degree of the equation

As we can see, it is a linear function with the highest power of as 1

That means it is of degree 1

Comparing with the general form;

y = mx + b

m = -5
