Answer:
2y = x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the graph, we can see from one point to the next (from right to left), the x-value rises by 2 and the y-value by 1;
From this we can work out the gradient between two points using the formula, i.e. the change/difference in y divided by the change/difference in x:
Joining the points gives a straight line, which means a constant gradient of ¹/₂
Use the line equation formula to get the function:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
m = ¹/₂
x₁ = 0
y₁ = 1
y - 1 = ¹/₂.(x - 0)
y - 1 = ¹/₂.x
2y - 2 = x
2y = x + 2
The price of the sweater was reduced by 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Cost before reduction was $20. The cost after reduction was 12$. Cost reduced= cost before reduction - cost after reduction
Cost reduced= $20 - $12 = $8
Step 2; We must find how much of the cost was reduced from the initial cost i.e. how much $8 is to $20. To do this we must convert it into a percentage. We divide the $8 with the $20 to get a value. This value must be multiplied with a 100 to be converted into a percentage.
Cost by which sweater was reduced= * 100 = 0.4 * 100 = 40
So the price of the sweater was reduced from $20 to $8 which equates to a reduction in 40%.
