First find 30% of 248.

0.3 * 248 = 74.4

Now add it:

74.4 + 248 = 322.4

So our answer is £322.40

$p\%=\frac{p}{100}\\\\30\%=\frac{30}{100}=\frac{3}{10}=0.3\\\\30\%\ of\ \£248=0.3\cdot\£248=\£74.40\\\\increase\to\£248+\£74.40=\boxed{\£322.40}\leftarrow answer$

The coordinates below represent two linear equations.

vovikov84 [41]

First write the equations in the slope-intercept form:
$y=mx+b \\ \\
m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Line 1 passes through the points (-6,-6) and (-4,-3).
$m=\frac{-3-(-6)}{-4-(-6)}=\frac{-3+6}{-4+6}=\frac{3}{2} \\ \\
(-6,-6) \to x=-6, \ y=-6 \\
-6=\frac{3}{2} \times (-6) + b \\
-6=-9+b \\
b=3 \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{2}x+3$

Line 2 passes through the points (0,3) and (2,6).
$m=\frac{6-3}{2-0}=\frac{3}{2} \\ \\
(0,3) \to x=0, \ y=3 \\
3=\frac{3}{2} \times 0 + b \\
b=3 \\ \\
y=\frac{3}{2}x+3$

These are two identical lines so the system of equations has infinitely many solutions. The answer is D.
