Given:
15% of its height each day
27 inches on day 10.

How tall was it yesterday?

27 represents 115% of the height yesterday. So we divided 27 by 115% to get yesterdays height.

27 ÷ 115% = 23.48 inches.

The plant was 23.48 inches tall yesterday.

To check:
23.48 x 15% = 3.52 inches
23.48 + 3.52 = 27 inches

What is the slope of the line of (1,0) and (-1,-3)
Alinara [238K]

Slope formula: m = \frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)} (Knowing that m represents the slope)

Substitute (1,0) for (x1,y1), and (-1,-3) for (x2,y2)

Slope of the line of (1,0) and (-1,-3) is:

m = \frac{(-3-0)}{(-1-1)} = \frac{-3}{-2} = \frac{3}{2}  

(Simplify)

Slope of the line of (1,0) and (-1,-3) is \frac{3}{2}

Since 2.5% as a decimal is .025, the equation to get this is:

(.025)(80000)

Once multiplied, these equal 2,000. Or in other words, the Smiths pay $2,000 in school taxes per year.
