Lets calculate the taxes that would been payed at each city:
city1 = 12000(7%) = 12000(0.07) = 840
city2 = 12000(8.5%) = 12000(0.085) = 1020
So if you go to city1 instead of city2, you save 1020 - 840 = 180
So you would save $180 from $12000, that is:
180 out of 12000
= 180/12000
= 0.015
and that is the 1.5%, that is what you could save

Graph the line with slope -3 passing through the point (3,-4)

Vinvika [58]

Given: $\textsf{Slope = -3, Passes through (3, -4)}$

Find: $\textsf{Equation in slope-intercept form}$

Solution: The first step that we need to take is to plug the given values into the point-slope formula which would help us out since we have both the slope and a point. Using that we would then distribute on the right side of the expression and then subtract 4 from both sides which would isolate y.

Plug in the values

$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

$y - (-4) = -3(x - 3)$

Distribute

$y + 4 = (-3 * x) + (-3 * - 3)$

$y + 4 = -3x + 9$

Subtract 4 from both sides

$y + 4 - 4 = -3x + 9 - 4$

$y = -3x + 9 - 4$

$y = -3x + 5$

Therefore, after plugging in the values and completing the rest of the steps we were able to determine that equation of the data provided would be $y = -3x + 5$ .

Please answer the question in the picture above

Andreas93 [3]

The difference between the masses is
4.55·10¹³ kg -1.78·10¹² kg
= 4.55·10¹³ kg - 0.178·10¹³ kg
= (4.55 -0.178)·10¹³ kg
= 4.372·10¹³ kg

Rounded to the appropriate precision, the mass of the Antarctic iceberg exceeds that of the Rock of Gibraltar by ...
4.37·10¹³ kg
