Answer:

\$40000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding Sandra's salary this year.

We are given that she saved $3,360 or 8% of her total salary this year.

Let's represent her total salary this year as "x" and set up an equation:

\$3360=8\%x\\

Note that any percentage is equivalent to that number over 100.

$3360=\frac{8}{100}x

Multiply 100 to both sides:

336000=8x

Divide both sides by 8

x=42000

The question states "this year her salary was $2000 more than in the previous year".

This means that her salary in the previous year is equivalent to:

42000-2000=40000

Zolol [24]

Answer:

B (3, 13.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using point (0,0) and (15, 67.5) we can find the slope(gradient).

(y - y¹) / (x - x¹) = (67.5 - 0) / (15 - 0)

= 67.5 / 15 = 4.5

slope = 4.5

using the point given in option A (0, 4.5) with point (15, 67.5) to calculate the slope it gives 4.2 which is not equal to what we calculated.

using the option B (3, 13.5) with (15, 67.5) gives a slope of 4.5 which is equal to the slope of the line.
