Because accepting credit cards cost the business small transaction fees. These businesses already have a paper thin profit margin, meaning if you buy less than $10 and use credit card, their profit is little to non-existent.
A whole number is a number that is whole as in 1,2,3,4,etc, they don’t have decimals. To find the whole number for these questions you must look at the places (hundreds, thousands, ten thousands.) I was always told a trick which is 4 or less let it rest, 5 or more let it sore. (Basically if it’s less than 4 then decrease it, if it’s higher than increase it.)
12.496 = 13
2.90 = 3
Your answers are 13 and 3.
10. (5,8)(-3,7)
slope = (7 - 8) / (-3 - 5) = -1 / -8 = 1/8
11. (5,-2)(3,-2)...since both y values are the same, this line is a horizontal line with a 0 slope.
12. (-4,7)(8,-1)
slope = (-1 - 7) / (8 - (-4) = -8 / (8 + 4) = -8/12 = - 2/3
13. (6,-3)(6,4)....since both x values are the same, this line is a vertical line with a slope that is undefined
14. -2/5
it's either 2/3 or 66.6 (neverending 6s)
Did you mean he paid $90 or do you mean the cost was reduced $25?
