Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price was 43 dollars
The new price is 55/100 * 43
The new price is 2365/100
The new price is 23.65 dollars
2365 came from multiplying 43 * 55 which is 2365
Answer:
The answer is a 20% discount.
Find the slope:
y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁
-1 - 2 / 0 - 4
-3 / -4
3/4
y = mx + b
y = 3/4x + b
Substitute any of the point's coordinate in the equation.
I'll pick (0,-1)
y = 3/4x + b
-1 = 3/4(0) + b
-1 = 0 + b
-1 = b
y-intercept = -1
y-intercept Equation:
y = 3/4x - 1
Point-slope form:
y - 2 = 3/4(x - 4)
Standard form:
-3/4x + y = -1
