Answer: 0.70
Step-by-step explanation the same as decreased by 30%" would be (1.00 - 0.30)(original cost), or 0.70(original cost)
None of the answers are correct because it’s definitely not “Given” because x=20 is like an answer. It’s also not “Distributive Property”, “subtraction Property”, and or “Additional Property” b/c there’s nothing that can be distributed, subtract or add. It’s just an answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
DE = 8x - 13
EF = 5x + 17
DF = x + 21
Also,
DE = EF
which means that,
8x - 13 = 5x + 17
8x - 5x = 17 + 13
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
Now,
DE = 8x - 13 = 8×10 - 13 = 80 - 13 = 67cm
EF = 5x + 17 = 5×10 + 17 = 50 + 17 = 67cm
DF = x + 21 = 10 + 21 = 31cm
To find slope between two given points:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Find the difference between the first two points
12-9.5/2-1 = 2.5/1 = 2.5
14.5-12/3-2 = 2.5/1 = 2.5
17-14.5/4-3 = 2.5/1 = 2.5
The rate of change between each point is 2.5
