Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the equation y = mx + b, and you plug in what you know. The slope is already 3 so you do y = 3x + b

after that, you plug in y and x, because (2,1) are the values of x and y.

1 = 3(2) + b

1 = 6 + b

subtract 6 from both sides to isolate the b

-5 = b

The value of a stock increases at a rate of 1/2% per year. If the initial value of the stock $40 a share, when will the value of

natka813 [3]

Answer:

After 50 years the stock value will be $50 per share.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest Equation (Principal + Interest)

A = P(1 + rt)

Where:

A = Future amont = $50

P = Principal Amount = $40

r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal; r = R/100 = 0.5/100 = 0.005

t = Time Period involved in months or years

Plug in the values

50 = 40(1 + 0.005t)

50 / 40 = (1 + 0.005t)

5/4 = 1 + 0.005t

5/4 - 1 = 0.005t

0.25 = 0.005t

t = 0.25 / 0.005

t = 50 years

Find the percent of increase from 40 gallons to 89 gallons. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.

fredd [130]

Solution

- 89 gallons contains 40 gallons twice such that:

$89=40+40+9$

- This means that we can find at least 200% of 40 gallons in 89 gallons. This gives us what to expect.

- To get the percentage we are looking for, we should use the formula:

$\frac{\text{new}}{\text{old}}\times100\text{ \%}$

New, in this case, is 89 gallons, Old is 40 gallons.

- Thus, we can calculate the percentage as follows:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{89}{40}\times100 \\ =2.225\times100 \\ =222.5\text{ \%} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the answer is 222.5%

Answer:

13.) 0.19625 15.) 37.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of a circle: A=πr²

13.) 3.14 x .25² = 0.19625

Formula for circumference for a circle: C=πD or C=2πr

15.) (6 x 2) x 3.14 = 37.68

Today only, a desk is being sold at a 33% discount. The sale price is $268. What was the price yesterday?

Serga [27]

Discount percent = 33%

Sale price = $268

Let the original price be $x.

So,

$x - (33\% \: of \: x) = 268 \\ = > x - ( \frac{33}{100} \times x) = 268 \\ = > x - ( \frac{33x}{100}) = 268 \\ = > \frac{100x}{100} - \frac{33x}{100} = 268 \\ = > \frac{(100x - 33x)}{100} = 268 \\ = > \frac{67x}{100} = 268 \\ = > 67x = 268 \times 100 \\ = > 67x = 26800 \\ = > x = \frac{26800}{67} \\ = > x = 400$

So, yesterday the price was $400.
