House price = down payment + mortgage x number of months

430,000 = 250,000 + 2,000x where x is number of months

To find number or months solve for x
430,000 = 250,000 + 2,000x

Subtract 250,000
180,000 = 2,000x

Divide by 2,000
x = 90 months

12 months in one year
90 = 84 + 6 = 12 x 7 + 6

7 years and 6 months

It costs Doug $30 to set up a cupcake stand. He charges $2 for every cupcake he sells. If Doug makes $48 of profit in one day, h

Answer:

It is 39 cupcakes.

Since he charges $2 per cupcake (39), it is 78.

He makes profit so subtract 30 from 78 and you get $48.

Answer:

The required equation is: $\mathbf{f(x)=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{29}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find equation from the table given

x f(x)

3 -5

7 -2

11 1

15 4

We can write equation in the form of $y=mx+b$

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Finding Slope

We can used the slope formula to find slope: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

From the table we have: $x_1=3, y_1=-5, x_2=7, y_2=-2$

Putting values and finding slope

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-2-(-5)}{7-3} \\Slope=\frac{-2+5}{7-3}\\Slope=\frac{3}{4}$

So, we get slope $m=\frac{3}{4}$

Now, finding y-intercept

Using the slope $m=\frac{3}{4}$ and point (3,-5) we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\-5=\frac{3}{4}(3)+b\\-5=\frac{9}{4}+b\\b=-5-\frac{9}{4}\\b=\frac{-5*4-9}{4}\\b=\frac{-20-9}{4}\\b=\frac{-29}{4}$

The y-intercept is $b=\frac{-29}{4}$

So, the equation having slope $m=\frac{3}{4}$ and y-intercept $b=\frac{-29}{4}$ will be:

$y=mx+b\\y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{29}{4}$

The required equation is: $\mathbf{f(x)=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{29}{4}}$

Tyrone saved 24$ of the 60 that he earned mowing lawns .what percent of his earnings did tyrone save

mezya [45]

If 24 of the 60 were saved then the percent saved is

(24/60) x 100

Let's imagine for a second that all 60 was saved, then 100% of the money would be saved. Which makes sense, because

(60/60) x 100 = 100%

So the amount saved dived by the amount earned all times 100 is the percent saved.
