Answer:
y intercept = - 40
Step-by-step explanation:
x 24 36 48
y -8 1 10
y = ax + b
a is the gradient (or slope).
b = y intercept.
a = (48-36) / (10-1) = 12/9
Rewrite to solve for b, which means it starts with b = ...
b = y - 12/9 * x
Substitute one point ( 24 , -8 )
b = -8 - (12/9 * 24)
b = y intercept = - 40
We need to use the formula for simple interest which is
I= prt
Where I is the amount of money you earned or pay in interest
p is the principal, the amount you deposited or borrowed
r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal
t is time in terms of years
In this problem, I= 1,680
p= 3000
t= 8
'. r is what we are looking for.
Substituting the numbers into the simple interest formula, we get
I=. p r t
1,680=(3000)(r)(8). Multiplying
1,680= 24,000r Divide both sides by 24,000
0.07= r
So, the percentage is (0.07)(100)= 7%...
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
gradient = change in y ÷ change in x
gradient = -5 ÷ 1 = -5
