The answer is: D. |-4| < |-5|

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number makes the number positive.

|-4| = 4 and |-5| = 5

So, 4 is less than 5.

A line passes through the point (-1,-5) and has a slope of -5.

Anna71 [15]

<h3>hello!</h3>

We're given a point that the line intersects and its slope.

Let's use Point-slope:-

$\boxed{y-y1=m(x-x1)}$

y1 = -5

m=-5

x1=-1

$\boxed{y-(-5)=-5(x-(-1)}$

$\boxed{y+5=-5(x+1)}$

Convert to slope-intercept:-

$\boxed{y+5=-5x-5}$

$\boxed{y=-5x-5-5}$

Finally,

$\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{y=-5x-10}}$

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)

When a watch is sold at ksh 126 aloss of x percent is made . If the same ksh 126, a loss of x percent is made . If the same watc

Nitella [24]

Answer:

ksh 140

Step-by-step explanation:

When a watch is sold for ksh 126 a loss of x% is made, that is( 100 - x)%

Hence, the loss amount = (126 X 100)/(100 - x)

When the same watch is sold for ksh 154 a profit of x% is made, that is (100 + x)%

Hence, the profit amout = (154 X 100)/(100 + x)

Therefore, (126 X 100)/(100 - x) = (154 X 100)/(100 + x)

12600(100 + x) = 15400(100 - x)

1260000 + 12600x = 1540000 - 15400x

28000x = 280000

x = 10%

In that case for a watch sold for ksh 126 a loss 10% is made, that is( 100 - 10)%

Hence, loss amount = (126 X 100)/90 = ksh 140

∴ the buying price is ksh 140
