Answer:
The % increase is 7.179 but see the remark I made below. What I have given and what it could be is a rounding error. Less than 2 dollars error is not much when you are calculating something for someone just to show them how to do it.
Step-by-step explanation:
242,555 * x/100 = 259,970 Multiply by 100
242,555 * x = 259970 * 100
242,555 * x = 25997000 Divide by 242555
x = 24997000/242444
x = 107.179
That's the total increase.
What you want is 7.179%
If you take 7.179% of 242,555 and add it onto 242555 you should get 259,970
7.1797/100 * 242555 = 17413.02
17413.02 + 242555 = 259968.02
Why isn't it exact. I'm out just about 2 whole dollars. The reason is that the % isn't exact. It's only out to 3 decimal places which apparently is not enough. You can go over my numbers if you want more exactness us use something that is rounded to 7.180 if you like.
To find the average of numbers you have to add all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers. *confusing*
25 + 25.4 + 25.35 + 26.1 = 101.85
101.85 ÷ 4 = 25.4625

Answer:
y = 3x - 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines will have a opposite reciprocal slope, so the slope will be 3.
Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b, then solve for b:
y = mx + b
4 = 3(6) + b
4 = 18 + b
-14 = b
Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b
y = 3x - 14
So, the equation of the line is y = 3x - 14
