Yes, it gets flipped if you’re dividing by a negative :)
<span>First, you need to take the 15% off from the $120 so it will make it easier for you to calculate later. Since there is 15% off, your $120 becomes only $102. Since your keyboards only costs $102 each now, you just have to multiply the number of keyboards you wanted to the less price. $102 multiplied by 24 keyboards is equals to $2,448. We don’t have to add taxes because it is stated that we are just looking for SUBTOTAL before taxes. The answer is A. $2,448. <span>

For number 6 it's 30 x 45
y=mx+b is the equation of a line;
m=slope , b= y-intercept
You can find the slope with this following equation: (y(2)-y(1))/(x(2)-x(1))
In this case the points are (0,4) and (-2,-3). The first set being (0,4) and the second (-2,-3). This means (0,4) can be expressed as (x(1),y(1)) and (-2,-3) expressed as (x(2),y(2)). Plugging these numbers into the slope equation gives us: (-3-4)/(-2-0) = -7/-2 = 7/2.
m= 7/2 ; so we have : y= (7/2)x+b
We are give a set of points which it passes through, we can simply plug them in:
4 = (7/2)(0)+b (0 is the x and 4 is the y)
We get 4 = 0 +b .... 4=b
our final equation is : y=(7/2)x+4
