Answer:

1.0282

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplier for a increase of a% is 1 + a/100.

The multiplier for a decrease of b% is 1 - b/100.

Decrease of 3% followed by a 6% increase:

Calculate each multiplier, and then multiply then:

Decrease 3%: 1 - (3)/100 = 0.97

Increase 6%: 1 + (6)/100 = 1.06

0.97*1.06 = 1.0282

The answer is 1.0282

Write the equation of the line parallel to 5x + y = -2 that goes through the point (2, -3).

gladu [14]

Answer:

y = -5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Step 1: Define

5x + y = -2

Random point (2, -3)

Step 2: Rewrite

y = -5x - 2

m = -5

Step 3: Write parallel line

y = -5x + b

-3 = -5(2) + b

-3 = -10 + b

7 = b

y = -5x + 7

In the data set below, what is the mean absolute deviation?4461526If the answer is a decimal, round it to the nearest tenth.mean

bixtya [17]

I assume that the numbers are: 4,4,6,1,5,2,6
If so, then the MAD is 1.43

To find the MAD, you first find the mean of the list. It is 4.
Then find the absolute difference of each number from the mean.

Those values are: 0,0,2,3,1,2,2
Now find the mean of those numbers and you have about: 1.43
