50,000 because when the number next to the main number is below 5 then you round down...if it is 5 or above then you round up
        
             
        
        
        
What is the essential question?
        
             
        
        
        
Simplest way to do this:
 number of books= 120
 percentage represented by 120= 100%
 increase current percent by 55%= 155%
: . 55% increase = original number of books * (155%)
                           = 120 * (155/100)
                           = 186
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First create an equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. To do this, find the rate of change or slope (m), and the y-intercept (b).
Using two pairs, (-7, -3) and (-8, -4),

m = 1
To find b, substitute m = 1, x = -7 and y = -3 into y = mx + b.
Thus:
-3 = (1)(-7) + b
-3 = -7 + b
-3 + 7 = b
4 = b
b = 4.
Replace y with f(x), m with 1 and b with 4 in y = mx + b.
The function would be:

 
        
             
        
        
        
X=3 pretty sure 
Hope this helps!!
