Using proportions, it is found that her discount is of $0.29664.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.
In this problem, the total amount she spent on gas is given by:
T = $45.23 + $102.34 + $13.67 + $34.56 + $48.72 + $52.12 = $296.64.
Considering that she receives ten cents off per gallon on gas for every $100 she spends, we apply the <em>proportion </em>to find that her discount is given by:
Her discount is of $0.29664.

A = (-7,-6)
B = (8,-9)
Find the slope of line AB
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-9-(-6))/(8-(-7))
m = (-9+6)/(8+7)
m = -3/15
m = -1/5
The slope of line AB is -1/5.
Flip the fraction and the sign to go from -1/5 to +5/1 = 5. The perpendicular slope is 5.
Let m = 5.
Use the coordinates of point C (2,12) along with the perpendicular slope to get
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 12 = 5(x - 2)
y - 12 = 5x - 10
y = 5x - 10+12
y = 5x + 2
Lastly, convert this to standard form
y = 5x + 2
5x+2 = y
5x+2-y = 0
5x-y = -2
Choice A is the closest match, but the -56 should be -2 instead. It seems like your teacher made a typo somewhere.
Answer:
y = 
x - 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 10)
m = 
= 
= , thus
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (2, - 4) , then
- 4 = 7 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 7 = - 11
y = x - 11 ← equation of line
D. y = x^2 because it is a parabola so the function needs to be quadratic
