Answer: $15

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal price of the mirror is unknown we do not know that yet. So, let y represent the unknown number. The discount is 20 percent, we turn 20 into a decimal which would be 0.2. The amount of discount is $3. So, 0.2y equals to $3.

Then we divided.

y = 3 ÷ 0.2

And when you divide that is would be 15.

So, the regular price of the mirror is $15.

A line contains the points R (-1, 8) S (1, 4) and T (6, y). Solve for y. Be sure to show and explain all work.
Nikitich [7]

Given:

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y).

To find:

The value of y.

Solution:

Three points are collinear if:

x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_2)+x_3(y_1-y_2)=0

A line contains the points R(-1, 8), S(1, 4) and T(6, y). It means, these points are collinear.

-1(4-y)+1(y-8)+6(8-4)=0

-4+y+y-8+48-24=0

2y+12=0

Subtract 12 from both sides.

2y=-12

Divide both sides by 2.

y=\dfrac{-12}{2}

y=-6

Therefore, the value of y is -6.

What function corresponds to the ordered pairs shown in the table?
Anettt [7]

well, we know it's a line, and to get the equation of any line all we need is two points, let's pick two from the table hmmmm say let's use (-3 , -7) and (3 , 11)

(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{11}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{11}-\stackrel{y1}{(-7)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{3}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{11+7}{3+3}\implies \cfrac{18}{6}\implies 3

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-7)}=\stackrel{m}{3}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}) \\\\\\ y+7=3(x+3)\implies y+7=3x+9\implies y = 3x+2
