Answer:

1. $450

2. $128

Step-by-step explanation:

1. new price = .4 (.4 * original price x)

72 = .16x

x = 450

2. new price = .75 (.75 * original price x)

72 = .5625x

x = 128

What is the standard form of the ordered pairs, (2,0) and (0,-6)
maxonik [38]

Hello!

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form: → y=mx+b

m: represents the slope and is constant.

b: represents the y-intercept.

You had to used their rise/run.

\frac{rise}{run}

rise=y^2-y^1

run=x^2-x^1

x^1,y^1=(2,0)

x^2,y^2=(0,-6)

rise=y^2-y^1=-6-0=-6

run=x^2-x^1=0-2=-2

-6/-2=3

<u><em>So, therefore the slope is 3.</em></u>

Hope this helps!

1. If there it is a straight line, it is linear, and if it is increasing at a constant rate of change, it is linear.
2. A company would prefer profits that show exponential growth because even though it starts out slow, it quickly gains more and greatly overcomes the sum of what linear profits would.
3. An example of exponential growth would be interested in a savings account.
