Answer:

$12.78.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the expected price of a good in 2000, knowing that in 2015 it cost $ 17.6 and that the consumer price indexes were worth 172.2 in 2000 and 237.017 in 2015, the following calculation must be performed:

237.037 = 17.6

172.2 = X

X = 172.2 x 17.6 / 237.037

X = 3,030.72 / 237.037

X = 12.78

Thus, the expected price of the good in the year 2000 is $ 12.78.

1. A function has a second rate of change of -4. Does the function have a maximum or a minimum?
Aloiza [94]

This function would have a maximum.

Since we are subtracting by a -4 for each increase in x, we know that the numbers will continue to go down. Given this fact, we know the number will never be higher than when we started, but the number could go infinitely low. As a result we have a maximum and no minimum.

Find the slope intercept form of the equation of the line through the points(2,-4) parallel to the line 8x+2y+2=0
Margarita [4]

Answer:

y = -4x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+2y+2=0

turn that into slope intercept form:

y = -4x - 1

a parallel line has the same slope, but different y-intercept

y = -4x + b

put (2,-4) into the equation

-4 = -4(2) + b

you get b=4

final product:

y = -4x + 4
