You just multiply 450 by .18 and it'll give you the 18% you have to add to 450.
So the equation would look like:
450(.18)=81
Which you then add:
450+81= 531
So 531 is your total!
Answer:
The equation would be y = 4/3x - 3
Since the change is to x, it will be a horizontal transformation.
When x is multiplied by a factor between 0 and 1, it stretches the function horizontally.
In this case, it stretches the function by a factor of 2 horizontally.
