Answer:
The rate of change in -4
Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change is also known as the slope
To do this, take two points {(-2, 17) , (-1, 13)} and find the slope
m = slope
m = change in y/change in x
m = 13 - 17/-1 - (-2)
m = -4/1
m = -4
The rate of change in -4
Answer:
Exact form: - 1/8
Decimal form: -0.125
No, it isn't!
first, the discount is 20 percent of 18 dollars, that is 18/5=3.6
this means that during the first week the prize is 18-3.6=14.4
now, the prize is marked up 20 % of 14.4! this is 2.88
so the prize later will be 14.4+2.88, that is 17.28, not 18
what is relevant here is what a number is a percent OF
Formula: y = mx + b
m being the slope
Slope given: -2, plug it in
Y = -2x + b
Now find y intercept (b)
Plug in the point (5,-11)
-11 = -2(5) + b
-11 = -10 + b, b = -1
Solution: y = -2x -1
The answer in simplest form is 1/4.
