What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (−2, 0) and (2, 8)? (1 point) y = 2(x + 2) y = 2(x − 2) y =
Sonja [21]

Answer: y=2(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is

y=\frac{8-0}{2-(-2)}=\frac{8}{4}=2

Using the point (-2, 0) to substitute into point-slope form, we get the equation to be \boxed{y=2(x+2)}

A new television set was recently purchased for the common room in a residence hall for $436.80 including tax the tax rate is 4%
garri49 [273]

Answer:

The price of the television before taxes is $420

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The purchased price = cost price +  taxes

- A new television set was recently purchased for the common room

 in a residence hall for $436.80

- This price including tax

- The tax rate is 4%

- We need to find the price of the television before taxes

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

- Assume that the price of the television before tax is 100%

∵ The tax rate is 4%

∵ The price after tax = price before tax + tax

∵ The price before tax = 100%

∴ The price after tax  = 100% + 4% = 104%

∵ 104% equivalent to $436.80

∴ 100   ⇒   ?

  104   ⇒   436.80

- <em>By using cross multiplication</em>

∴ ? = \frac{(436.80)(100)}{104}=420

∴ The price of the television before taxes is $420
