Answer:

y=-3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-8-7)/(4-(-1))

m=-15/(4+1)

m=-15/5

m=-3

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-7=-3(x-(-1))

y-7=-3(x+1)

y=-3x-3+7

y=-3x+4

The price of an item has been reduced by 70% the original price was $58 what’s the price of the item now ¿

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:$17.40

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple question. First since 70% is the amount of money removed, we do 100-70=30

30% is the price that remains. Change that into a fraction 30/100 and then multiply the original cost

30/100*58=17.4

The answer is $17.40
