Step-by-step explanation:
100% = $70.99
there is a discount of 25%.
that means 75% (100 - 25) of the original price remains.
the equation to get any x% amount of a 100% total is simply
x% amount = 100% total amount × x/100
25% = 70.99 × 25/100 = $17.75
As far as steps i’ll tell you in the comments
Answer:
y = -1/2x +5
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form is ...
y = mx + b
Matching this to the equation you have, you see that ...
m = -2/4 = -1/2
b = 5
The equation is already in slope-intercept form. The fraction that is the slope can be reduced, but that is not essential to the form.
