I believe the fastest way to solve this problem is to take any two of the given points and to find the slope and y-intercept of the line connecting those two points.
Let's choose the 2 given points (-3,16) and (-1,12).
Going from the first point to the second, the increase in x is 2 and the increase in y is actually a decrease: -4. Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is m = -4/2, or m = -2.
Now use the slope-intercept formula to find the y-intercept, b.
One point on the line is (-3,16), and the slope is m = -2.
Thus, the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b becomes 16 = -2(-3) + b.
Here, b comes out to 10.
So now we have the slope and the y-intercept. Write the equation:
y = mx + b becomes y=-2x+10. Which of the four given answer choices is the correct one?
Answer:
24.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 180 is double 90 divide 45 by 2 and you'll get 24.5
Answer: X = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
10 + 3 = 13
13 - 10 = 3

Answer:
New amount (decrease) = £17253.53
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Amount = £19064.67
Percentage = 9.5%
To find the percentage decrease;
Percentage cost = £1811.14
New amount (decrease) = Original amount - percentage cost
Substituting into the equation, we have;
New amount (decrease) = £19064.67 - £1811.14
<em>New amount (decrease) = £17253.53</em>
