Answer:

$41.78

Step-by-step explanation:

tax is 4.5% on top of original price of 39.98

so multiplying 39.98 by 1.045 gives us 41.78

you multiply by 1.045 because 4.5% is the same as 0.045 and the 39.98 represents 100% of the price so it is 1 and you are paying 104.5% of that price for it when tax is included

nadya68 [22]

Using a linear function, it is found that the rate of change in this problem situation is of -2 contestants per week.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Considering the situation described, the number of participants after n weeks is given by:

N(n) = 20 - 2n.

The slope is of -2, hence the rate of change in this problem situation is of -2 contestants per week.
