m=-(5/4)
From left to right, (1,3) is first and then comes (5,-2). Always remember when finding slopes without equations, the rule is RISE over RUN, to the numerator and denominator, respectively.
The y value of the second coordinates becomes negative which is unlike the y value in the first coordinates, which means our slope is downward, meaning it has a negative sign in front.
In every slope, there’s a numerator, being the rise, and a denominator, being the run.
To find the rise, we must look at the y values. Starting at 3 going to -2 has a space of 5 units, making that our numerator.
To find the run, the first x value is 1 and the second is 5, making a space of 4, which is out denominator.
With these two numbers and the negative sign, we get -(5/4) as our slope.
Are there anymore numbers after the six? If there is not then it si already rounded to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
FV= $436.72
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial cost (PV)= $500
Decrease rate (d)= 7% per year
Number of periods (n)= 2 years
<u>To calculate the future value after 2 years, we need to use the following formula:</u>
FV= PV / (1 + d)^n
FV= 500 / (1.07^2)
FV= $436.72
A would be the correct answer
What must be subtracted from each term of the ratio 3:7 so that the ratio becomes 2:5?
My attempt: Let two numbers be 3x and 7x. So, 3x−y7x−y=25⟹15x−5y=14x−2y⟹y=x3. But the answer is given as 13 only.
I wish somebody could provide some clarifications.
