The CPI increased from 29.6 to 82.4.
The rate of increase, is:
82.4/29.6 = 2.78
Now multiply this rate to the $0.14 price of grapes from 1960.
$0.14 x 2.78 = $0.39
Now to get the amount of increase subtract the new price from the original price:
$0.39 - $0.14 = $0.25 increase.
Answer:y = -3x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an equation of a line that passes through two points, we have to first find the slope between the two equation. We can do this by using the slope formula:
where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the two points that we are finding the slope between.
Lets make (x₁, y₁) equal to (0, 10) and (x₂, y₂) equal to (3, 1). Now we plug them into the slope formula:
So the slope between the two points is -3.
From here, I would normally take one of the points given to us and plug in the point and slope into the point-slope form of a line and then simplify until we get it in slope-intercept form. But if you look carefully, the y-intercept is given to us as the point (0, 10). So we now know that the y-intercept of the line is 10. We can now take the y-intercept and the slope and plug it into the slope-intercept form of a line to get out equation:
y = mx + b
plug in -3 for m (the slope) and 10 for b (the y-intercept)
y = -3x + 10
So now we have our equation.
I hope you find my answer and explanation helpful. Happy studying. :)
Answer:
10.8 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
First change everything to inches:
2.75 ft = 33 in
1.5 ft = 18 in
Volume of tank = lwh = (33)(18)(7) = 4158 in³
The tank is 40% full, so only 60% is need to fill it. To find 60%, multiply 4158 by 0.6 = 2494.8 in³
Now find out how much 2494.8 in³ is in gallons:
231 in³ = 1 gallon
1 in³ = 1/231 gallons
2494.8 = (1/231)(2494.8) gallons = 10.8 gallons
Answer:
Again, the answer is (1,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the values
