If you graph this, your first point will be at (0,5), as the ramp is at the warehouse door but 5 feet up. The second point is (10,0) as it is touching the ground but it's 10 feet away from the warehouse.
To find slope, you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
When substituting in the variables, you get (0-5)/(10-0), which is -5/10, which is simplified to -1/2. Of course, that is when the warehouse is Quadrant II. If you look at it from another point of view, the slope will be positive so your answer is A) 1/2.
If this was unclear feel free to comment :)
B=41 that would be the answer
D is correct because you could put in a value for x and get a true value for y
exg
x=3
y=14(3)-9
y=42-9
y=33
Answer:
$26.32
step-by-step explanation:
it originally was $40.00
she has a coupon for 30%
30% of 40.00 is 12
40 • 0.30 = 12
40 - 12
$28
it is now $28 after the coupon
her state charges an 6% sales tax on the discounted price
6% of 28 is 1.68
28 • 0.06 = 1.68
28 - 1.68 = 26.32
