7.95 ÷ 1.06 = $7.50
This works as by dividing 7.95 by the percentage multiplier 1.06 it will give you the original amount.
An alternative method is to find out what 100% (7.95) is, then divide by 10 to find 10% and then divide by 10 again to find 1% and then multiply the 1% by 6 and subtracting the answer from 7.95.
The regression equation:
y = m x + b
m = ( 57 - 50 ) / ( 178 - 168 ) = 7 / 10 = 0.7
50 = 0.7 * 168 + b
50 = 117.6 + b
b = 50 - 117.6
b = - 67.6
y = 0.7 * x - 67.6The graph is in the attachment.
The weight of supermodel who is 171 cm tall:
y = 0.7 * 171 - 67.6 = 119.7 - 67.6 =
52.1 kg
