<em>2400 is increased by 30%.</em>

so,

2400 + (30/100 * 2400)

2400 + (30 * 24)

2400 + 720

3120

<em>this number is decreased by 20%.</em>

so,

3120 - (20/100 * 3120)

3120 - (2 * 312)

3120 - 624

2496

therefore, the final number will be 2496.

Sam has the lead role in the school play. He still has to memorize 1/2 of his lines. Suppose Sam memorizes 1/3 of his lines toda

DaniilM [7]

Answer: 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sam has to memorize 1/2 of his lines and he memorizes 1/3 of his lines today, the fractions of his lines that he has left to memorize will be gotten by subtracting 1/3 from 1/2. This will be:

= 1/2 - 1/3

= 3/6 - 2/6

= 1/6

Therefore, he has 1/6 of his lines left to memorize.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

y = 8x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordination of the points are : (-5,-2) , (3, -1)

Then, the equation is :

$\frac{y+5}{x+2} =\frac{-5-3}{-2+1} \\\\or,\frac{y+5}{x+2} = 8\\or, y+5=8(x+2)\\or, y = 8x+16-5\\y= 8x+11$
