Difference = 48-19
= 29
production decrease = 29 × 100/ 48
= 60.41%
Answer:
m= 8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Points on the graph: ( -4, -4) and (1, 4)
Slope:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(4+4)/(1+4)
m= 8/5
Answer: C) 5
--------------
x = independent variable, y = dependent variable
Assuming this is a linear function, each increase of x by 2 leads to y going up by 10. So 10/2 = 5 is the unit increase each time x bumps up by 1.
-------------------
An alternative is to use the slope formula to get
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (25 - 15)/(4 - 2)
m = 10/2 <--- this expression shows up again
m = 5 <---- leading to the same answer as before
So we see that the slope formula is a more drawn out method to finding the answer.
You have to set up a proportion so 2 over 3= x over 60. So multiply 2 times 60= 120 divided by 3 which is 40
