I believe the answer is a 20% increase because 12-10 equals 2. there is a 2 record difference so 2 out of 10 is 1/5 of the whole, but you have to convert the numbers and 1/5 of the whole of 100 is 20. sorry if that didn’t make much sense
Answer: you’re multiplying by 2 each time
Answer:
y = -0.3x + 103
Step-by-step explanation:
✔️Find the slope (b):
Slope = ∆y/∆x
Using, (25, 95.5) and (35, 92.5),
Slope (m) = (92.5 - 95.5)/(35 - 25) = -3/10 = -0.3
✔️Find the y-intercept (b):
Substitute (x, y) = (25, 95.5) and m = -0.3 into y = mx + b
95.5 = -0.3(25) + b
95.5 = -7.5 + b
95.5 + 7.5 = b
103 = b
b = 103
✔️To write the equation, substitute m = -0.3 and b = 103 into y = mx + b
Thus:
y = -0.3x + 103
