20% decrease

1400 ÷ 100 = 14 (1% of the original)

1400 - 1120 = 280 (difference)

280 ÷14 = 20

it's a percentage decrease because the amount is smaller than the original

Write each equation in slope-intercept form (3,4); and (-6,-2)
Alborosie

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Given 2 points you can find the slope using (y-y1)/(x-x1)

m = (-2-4)/(-6-3) = -6/-9 = 2/3

To find b use one of the points and m and plug into the slope intercept form and then solve for b.

y=mx+b

4=2/3(3) + b

4=2 + b

b=2

Now we can write the final equation as : (plug m and b back in)

y = 2/3x + 2

Ronny is selling coffee mugs for $3.50. So far, he has earned $245.00. Ronny needs to earn more than $315 in order to meet his s
Bezzdna [24]
Y = 3.50x
245 = 3.50x
x = 245/3.5
x = 70 coffee mugs

315 = 3.50x
x = 315/3.5
x = 90 coffee mugs

Ronny needs to sell 90 coffee mugs to reach his sales goal. However, he already sold 70 coffee mugs, so he needs to sell an additional 20 coffee mugs to reach 90 coffee mugs and reach his $315 sales goal.
