Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change = final - initial / time(in years)
= 41 - 43 / 2014 - 2012
= - 2 / 2
<u>Rate of change</u> = <u>- 1</u>
Therefore, the number of employees with health care benefits reduced by 1 person per year between 2012 - 2014 in response to policy changes.
Answer:
b, only b
y = -3 has zero slope.
Step-by-step explanation:
Only a horizontal line has zero slope. A horizontal line's equation is given in the form: "y equals a number" So y=-3 is horizontal with zero slope.
Vertical lines have undefined slope. This is not the same as zero. Vertical lines have an equation in the form x= anumber. Above in the answer choices, choice a and d are both vertical with undefined slope and are not the correct answer. Choice c has slope 5, because that is the number beside the x in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope. So choice c is also not the answer.
Only choice b has zero slope.
5.50 x 3.87 equals 21.285. 21.285 rounded to the nearest cent is $21 dollars and 3 cents.
