Answer:

The y-intercept of the function is: b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x                 y

1                 8

2                6

3                4

4                2

Taking any two points to find the slope

  • (1, 8)
  • (2, 6)

The slope between (1, 8) and (2, 6) is:

\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(1,\:8\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:6\right)

m=\frac{6-8}{2-1}

m=-2

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Substituting m=-2 and any point i.e. (1, 8) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation to find the y-intercept (b).

y=mx+b

8 = -2(1) + b

8 = -2 + b

b = 8+2

b = 10

Thus, the y-intercept of the function is: b=10

earnstyle [38]
First, find the volume of the whole cube
Volume of cube = 4 x 4 x 4 = 64 cm³

The volume of sand is 25% of the volume of cube so,
Volume of sand = 25/100 x 64 = 16 cm³

A dress listed from $119 is discounted 25%. What is the sale price of the dress including a 7 1/2 state sales tax?
Daniel [21]
If it is discounted 25%, then u r actually paying 75%

0.75(119) = 89.25 (without tax)

sales tax = 7 1/2% = 7.5% = 0.075
89.25(1.075) = $ 95.94 <===
