Answer: Choice A
y + 1 = -3(x+2)
=============================
Explanation:
Let's look through the answer choices.
Choices C and D show that the point (2,1) is on the line. But the graph does not show this. So we can rule out choices C and D.
With choice A, the slope is negative and choice B has a positive slope.
The answer must be choice A because the line is going downhill as we move from left to right.
--------------
A common method is to pick two points on the line and compute the slope using the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Once you know the slope, you would use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
You know you are finished dividing when you can no longer simply & when you plug it back in to check the answer
Divide it and get yo answer
Answer: 0.02x
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of the cars the salesman makes is x in this instance.
The salesman makes a 2% commission on every sale so this can be represented by multiplying 2% by the value of the cars which in this case is x.
= 2% * x
= 0.02 * x
= 0.02x
If for instance he sells $40,000 worth of cars, his commission would be:
= 0.02 * x
= 0.02 * 40,000
= $800
Answer:
-2 , 4
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 + 4 = -2
-2 * 4 = -8
