First we need to find the slope.
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-5 - 2) / (5 - -3)
slope = (-7) / (5 + 3)
slope = -7/8
.
Point-slope form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = (-7/8)(x - -3)
y - 2 = (-7/8)(x + 3)
y - 2 = (-7/8)x - 21/8
y = (-7/8)x - 21/8 + 2
y = (-7/8)x - 21/8 + 16/8
y = (-7/8)x - 5/8
Answer:
x = 69.44
Step-by-step explanation:
We have, 36% × x = 25
or, 36/100 × x = 25
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 36,
we have x = 25 × 100/36
x = 69.44
If you are using a calculator, simply enter 25×100÷36, which will give you the answer.
