Answer:

7.04% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use 5 example

5*0.17=0.85

5-0.85=4.15

4.15*0.12=0.498

4.15+0.498=4.648

7.04% of 5 is 4.648

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and (0,-4)
Arte-miy333 [17]

y = mx + b

To find the slope(m), you use the slope formula:

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

You plug in the points into the equation.

m = \frac{-4 - (-4)}{0 - 2}

m = \frac{-4+4}{0-2} = \frac{0}{-2} =0

The slope is 0

y = 0x + b

Any number multiplied by 0 is 0. So:

y = b

To find b, you plug in the y value of either of the points.

-4 = b

Your equation is:

y = -4 (This is a horizontal line)

49–2ax –a^2–x^2 factor
vampirchik [111]

49–2ax –a^2–x^2

Extract the negative sign

= 49 - (a^2 +2ax +x^2)

Factor using a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = (a+b)^2

= 49 - (a+x)^2

Factor using a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)

= ( 7- (a + x)) * (7 + (a + x))

= ( 7- a - x) * (7 + a + x)
