When you divide a number by two, you find the number that if you add it to itself, become the original number.
When you square root a number, you find the smaller number that becomes the bigger number if you multiply it by itself.
For sixteen, if you divide it by two, you get 8, while if you square root it, it becomes 4.
Answer:
y =
x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The answer to this problem is a simple plug-in of the given values into the slope-intercept formula.</u>
Slope intercept formula: y = mx + b
(m = slope)
(b = y intercept)
If the equation has a slope of m =
, then the slope-intercept form would be:
y =
x
If the y-intercept of an equation is (0 , -2), then the slope intercept form would be:
y = mx - 2
<u>Putting both of these values into an equation would give option A:</u>
y =
x - 2
Your answer is $30,000.
The way I have answered this is quite strange, but I'll do my best to explain it. So because we know that $30,900 is 3% than last year, we can call it 103%. This allows us to form a ratio and therefore find 100%.
30,900 : 103
÷ 103
300 : 1
× 100
30,000 : 100
Which means $30,000 is 100%, or 3% less than $30,900. I hope this helps! Let me know if it was confusing or anything :)
