Answer:
y= (-6/5)x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b , where m is the slope, and b is the y -intercept
the y -intercept is where the line intersects the y-axis so b = -2
the slope m= y(rise) /x(run) = 6/-5 = -6/5 ( to find the slope you have to know how to get from any point on the line to another point on the same line; start at point (0,-2) go up 6(y-rise) and to the left 5(x-run) at point (-5,4))
y= (-6/5)x -2
Answer:um you simplify it
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
32.4
Step-by-step explanation:
prior + 8.1 = 40.5 . . . . . . seems to model the problem statement
prior = 32.4 . . . . . . . subtract 8.1 from both sides
Prior to the increase the percent was 32.4.

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>
When you're talking about a percentage increase in a percentage, it is almost never clear whether you're talking about the percentage of the underlying number, or the percentage of the percentage.
Here, we assume the 8.1 is a percentage of working students, not a percentage of the percentage of workings students. If you actually intend the latter, the percentage before the increase was about 37.465%.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out equation
d(-3 + x) = kx + 9
Step 2: Distribute <em>d</em>
-3d + dx = kx + 9
Step 3: Subtract 9 on both sides
-3d + dx - 9 = kx
Step 4: Subtract dx on both sides
-3d - 9 = kx - dx
Step 5: Factor out <em>x</em>
-3d - 9 = x(k - d)
Step 6: Divide both sides by k - d
