Answer:

$19,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The original or initial price of the car = discount price + amount by which the car was reduced

$16,000 + $3000 = $19,000

The percentage decrease in price = (amount discounted / original price) x 100

( $3000 / $19,000) x 100 = 15.79%

What is the slope of this line?

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

A line is increasing if it goes up from left to right. The slope is positive, i.e. m > 0 {\displaystyle m>0} .

A line is decreasing if it goes down from left to right. The slope is negative, i.e. m < 0 {\displaystyle m<0} .

If a line is horizontal the slope is zero. This is a constant function.

If a line is vertical the slope is undefined (see below).

malfutka [58]

Answer:

The carpenter will not be able to buy 12 '2 by 8 boards' and 14 '4 by 4 boards'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount a carpenter can spend at most = $250

The inequality to represent the amount he can spend on each type of board is given as:

$8x+12y$

where $x$ represents '2 by 8 boards' and $y$ represents '4 by 4 boards'.

To determine whether the carpenter can buy 12 '2 by 8 boards' and 14 '4 by 4 boards'.

Solution :

In order to check whether the carpenter can buy 12 '2 by 8 boards' and 14 '4 by 4 boards' , we need to plugin the $x=12$ and $y=14$ in the given inequality and see if it satisfies the condition or not or in other words (12,14) must be a solution for the inequality.
