So the answer is 14 ounces
Explanation
Since 16.8 is the original plus 20% we could say 16.8=120%

And since X is the original we could say X=100
So using that info we could put it into a proportion
120/100=16.8/x or
120. 16.8
——=. ———-
100. X
Then we cross multiply and divide
So,
120x=16.8(100)
120x=1680 then divide both sides by 120
X=14

Find the equation of the line passing through the points A (2,1) B (7,9)

Bezzdna [24]

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{9 - 1}{7 - 2} = \frac{8}{5} = 1\frac{3}{5}$
      y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
       y - 1 = 1³/₅(x - 2) Point - Slope Form
       y - 1 = 1³/₅(x) - 1³/₅(2)
       y - 1 = 1³/₅x - 3¹/₅
       + 1    + 1
              y = 1³/₅x - 2¹/₅ Slope - Intercept Form
   -1³/₅x - y = 1³/₅x - 1³/₅x - 2¹/₅
      -1³/₅x - y = -2¹/₅
   -1(-1³/₅x - y) = -1(-2¹/₅)
-1(-1³/₅x) + 1(y) = 2¹/₅
   1³/₅x - y = 2¹/₅ Standard Form
       1³/₅(0) - y = 2¹/₅
      0 - y = 2¹/₅
      -y = 2¹/₅
      -1    -1
   y = -2¹/₅ Y - Intercept
   (x, y) = (0, -2¹/₅)
