The least number should always start off with negatives if there are any. In this case there is so we can start with -2 as our least amount. Next are the small fractions. If you're allowed a calculator, I would use that to find what the decimals will look like for each fraction:

After -2 the next least number is 0 and the next one is the fraction or decimal closest to the number 0 which is 0.4
The next number would be from the fractions we solved earlier. 0.5 and 0.625 would follow 0.4 and then 1.1 and 1.6667(solved for from fraction).
Here is the list:

A direct variation is a proportional equation. Such as:
For every 3 cookies, linda gets 1 glass of milk. The equation for this is y=3x where y is the glasses and x is the cookies. this is a direct variation. It also has a linear line. Linear means straight. Rate of change and slope are the exact same thing. They are the value of 'm' in y=mx+b
Answer:
The retail price is $103.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Markdowns are, to be simple, when the price goes DOWN, so the price would be less than the original rather than more. First, you must calculate what one percent of the original is, which is 1.40. As the markdown is 26 percent, you can do 1.40 x 26 to get how much was marked down, which is $36.40. To find the new price now, you must do the original minus the markdown, or 140 - 36.40 in this case. This gives you $103.6 as the retail price.

I'm pretty sure it's commutative property of addition
