Answer:

The common ratio is 2/5. Each number is 60% less in magnitude than the previous one.

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers don't actually decrease; they increase. Each number is 2/5 of the previous one, so has "decreased" by 3/5 of its value, or 60%.

A line has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (2,-5) which is the equation of the line

dimulka [17.4K]

We will be using the Point Slope formula which is $y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )$

The information we are given is that m = -4 and the point is (2,-5), so we can input it into the equation.

$y- (-5) = -4(x-2)$

This simplifies into $y+5 = -4x +8$

Then we can subtract 5 from each side to get the answer:

$y = 4x+3$

A store charges $2.10 for a medium bag of fruit slices. Assuming that the rate stays the same, how much should the store charge

melomori [17]

Hey there,

Your question states: A store charges $2.10 for a medium bag of fruit slices. Assuming that the rate stays the same, how much should the store charge for a large bag of the slices?

So sense this is a medium bad of fruit slices, we would divide 2.10 by 2.

Your answer would be 1.5 Now, all we do is we add 2.10+1.5 and we get 3.15. The reason would be because sense we now know the price of the size of it being small, we just add that size on top of the medium size to get 3.15.

Hope this helps.
