Ethan is thinking of a negative number that is lower than -4 and higher than
s2008m [1.1K]

When the number is odd and a multiple of 3, the number that Ethan is thinking of is -9.

<h3>How to illustrate the number?</h3>

In mathematics, a multiple is the product of any quantity and an integer. It should be noted that, for the quantities a and b, it can be said that b is a multiple of a if b = na for some integer n, which is called the multiplier. If a is not zero, this is equivalent to saying that b/a is an integer.

In this case, Ethan is thinking of a negative number that is lower than -4 and higher than -10 and his number is odd and a multiple of 3. The number is -9 since 9 is a multiple of 3.

Can y’all help me find the slope
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

#3 slope is the change in y divided by the change in x

So -10-(-8)/13-15 = -2/-2=1

for #5 the slope is always the coefficient of x when written in slope intercept form so the slope is 3

#7 the gradient is infinite

Find the sale price or selling price.<br> 17. Original price: $15<br> Discount: 5%<br> Sale price:
hammer [34]

Answer:

14.25

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets go over our information.

We have a price of 15 dollars.

And it is 5% cheaper.

This means that the price is 95% of what it used to be.

We must find 95% of 15.

We know that to put 95% into decimal form, we must divide by 100:

95/100

=

0.95

So we know we must multiply 15 by 0.95:

15x0.95

=

14.25

So our price is now 14.25 dollars

hope this helps! :)
