The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price. The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent. Write a pa

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions :

The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price. The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent.

Write a pair of linear equations using variables of your choice to prove that these two statements are not equivalent.

Let the original price = x

Expression 1 : The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price

List price = 80% of x

List price = 0.8x

Expression 2: The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent

Price = x - 80% of x

Price = x - 0.8x

Price = 0.2x

Multiply by percentages is different from an Incremental or decrement in percentage. The first expression above signifies a direct multiplication by the stated percentage while the second signifies a decrease in price based on a certain percentage of the original price.

Wording of percentages are so important for clarity in other to understand if the statement signifies a direct application of the percentage prescribed or a change in quantity, amount or size relative to the base unit.

Find the slope of the line through each pair

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:A) -4/3 B) 1/2 C) -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

For A) let (x1, y1) = (8, -7), (x2, y2) = (5, -3)

Slope = (-3 -(-7)) / (5 - 8) = 4/-3

For B) let (x1, y1) = (-5, 9), (x2, y2) = (5, 11)

Slope = (11 - 9) / (5 - (-5)) = 2/10 = 1/2

For C) let (x1, y1) = (-8, -4), (x2, y2) = (-4, -9)

Slope = (-9 -(-4)) / (-4 - (-8)) = -5/4
