Answer:

$33600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = original car price

Since it is a 25% profit that means we multiply x by 1.25

1.25x = 42000

Divide both sides by 1.25

1.25x/1.25 = 42000/1.25

x = 33600

Which equation represents the same line as the points in the table

vodomira [7]

Answer:

$y=\frac{-3}{4} x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can find the slope using the slope equation and two of the points.

Slope equation:

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

I'm going to use the first two points just so I can avoid the fraction... Substitute the x and y values into the equation.

$m=\frac{2-5}{0--4}$

Simplify:

$m=\frac{-3}{4}$

Now that we have the slope, all we need is the y-intercept. Luckily, it gives it to us in the table. The x value of y-intercepts will always be 0. Looking at the table, we see that the point where x=0 is (0,2). Thus, the y-intercept is 2. Your final equation is

$y=\frac{-3}{4} x+2$
