Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is asking for slope-intercept form, luckily, they gave us both of those things.
Slope-intercept form: 
, where 
slope and 
y-intercept.
So,
Hope this helps!
-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1
Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts. First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable. I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.
-x - y = 8 add y to each side
-x = 8 + y divide by -1
x = -8 - y
So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation. In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.
2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1 multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1 combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1 add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15 divide each side by -3
y = -5
Now we have a value for y. We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x. I usually choose the most simple equation.
-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8 multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8 subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3 divide each side by -1
x = -3
So our solution set is
(-3, -5)
That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.
They need to have common denomenators so change the fractions to 12/15 - 5/15 which is 7/15.
<span>Let n be the number of taxis in NY. The average distance travelled is 60,000 miles, therefore the middle 95% will have the same average as the population, the reason being the mileage is symmetrically distributed about the mean Therefore the total number of miles in one year for the middle 95% is 60,000 * 0.95 * n
</span><span>The range of miles driven by the middle 95% can be found from the empirical rule that says:
For a normal distribution, approximately 95% of the data points lie within the range plus and minus 2 standard deviations of the population mean. In this case the range is
(60,000-22,000) to (60,000 + 22,000)</span>
Answer:
1,620/.60 = $2,700
step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the complement of the trade discount 100% - 40 = .60 •Calculate the list price $n Discount Rates EXAMPLE: The list price of the office equipment is $15,000. The chain discount is 20/15/10.Step 1. $15,000 X .20 =$3,000Step 2. $15,000-3,000=$12,000 X .15 = $1,800Step 3. $12,000-1,800 = $10,200 X.10 = $1,020Step 4. $10,000- 1,020 = 9,180 Net PriceCalculating Net Price Using Net Price Equivalent Rate EXAMPLE: The list price of office equipment is $15,000. The chain discount is 20/15/10. What is the net price? Step 1. Calculate each rates complement and convert to a decimal.100%-20 = 80% which is .8100%-15= 85% which is .85100% -10 = 90% which is .9Step 2. Calculate the net price equivalent rate. ( Do not round ).8 X .85 X .9 = .612 Net price equivalent rate. For each dollar you are spending about 60 cents.Step 3. Calculate the net price (actual cost to buyer) $15,000 X .612 = $9,180Step 1. Subtract each chain discount rate from 100% (find the complement) and convert each percent to a decimal.Trade Discount AmountList price x Trade discount rate = Trade discount amount $5,678 x 25% = $1,419.50Net Price List price -- Trade discount amount = Net Price
