x y
------ -----
-9 -2
-5 -7
-1 -12
3 -17
ur x's all have a difference of 4, and ur y's all have a difference of -5...so yes, this is linear with a slope of (-7+2) / (-5 + 9) = -5/4
Answer:
Phil is 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 14 to 9 and you get 23. So then you subtract 9 from 23
P-0.40p = 0.60p
C. Decrease by 40% is the same as multiply by 60%.
Assume that p = 10
10 - 0.40(10) = 0.60(10)
10 - 4 = 6
6 = 6
Based on the above assumption. 40% of 10 is 4 ; and 60% of 10 is 6. So, 10 less 4(40% of 10) is equal to 6 (60% of 10).
Percentage is used because 0.40 and 0.60 will be multiplied with 100% to get the equivalent percentage 0.40 x 100% = 40% ; 0.60 x 100% = 60%
