Work backwards!
282 -12 =270
270/3.6 = 75
75 + 6 =81
81 * 3= 243
He started with 243
Answer:
Slope is 2.15
y-intercept is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find slope and y-intercept of the graph given.
The formula used to find slope is:
Looking at the graph, we can find 2 points
Point 1 : (0,-2)
Point (2): (2,-2.3)
Now putting values and finding slope:
We have:
So, we get slope = 2.15
Now, finding y-intercept
y-intercept can be found if we put x =0
Looking at the graph, when x =0, y = 2
So, y-intercept is 2
6.53-5.88=0.65
(0.65/6.53)x100= 10% decrease
