Y = m x + b , where m is the slope. The slope is the rise over the run or the change in x ( rooms cleaned ) over the change in y ( cost ).
125 = m * 1 + b
175 = m * 2 + b
-----------------------
b = 125 - m
175 = 2 m + 125 - m
m = 175 - 125
m = 50 ( the rate of change ), b = 75
The formula is: y = 50 x + 75
It means that the starting cost will be $75 and that for every room cleaned, the cost will rise for $50.
The ratio of building heights will be the same as the ratio of shadow lengths.
(taller building)/(shorter building) = (longer shadow)/(shorter shadow)
(taller building)/(84 ft) = (110 ft)/(46 ft) . . . . . . fill in the given numbers
(taller building) = (84 ft)*(110/46) ≈ 200.9 ft . . multiply by 84 ft, evaluate
The appropriate selection is
D) 200.9 ft
Answer:
20 %
Step-by-step explanation:
% Increase = Increase/Original value × 100 %
Data:
Original = $25
This year = $30
Calculations:
Increase = This year - original
= 30 - 25
= $5
% Increase = 5/25 × 100 %
= 20 %
The percent increase of the price of the necklace was 20 %.
