Multiplying by 1 keeps it the same. A number greater than 1 would be an increase and a number below 1 would be a decrease.
The decrease is 2.7% which is written as 0.027 as a decimal.
Subtract that from 1:
1 - 0.027 = 0.973
The multiplier would be 0.973
Given:
The equation
goes through the coordinates (6,5) and (-2,-5).
To find:
The values of A and B.
Solution:
We have,

It goes through the coordinates (6,5) and (-2,-5). It means these points will satisfy the equation.

...(i)

...(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii), we get


Divide both sides by 4.

Put A=5 in (i), we get
Divide both sides by 5.

Therefore, the values of A and B are 5 and -4 respectively.
Answer: C. Ø
Step-by-step explanation: There are no values of x that make the inequality true.
