Chase is trying to calculate the total cost of the T-shirt that he's buying. Since it's on sale, he first found the amount of the discount and added that to the original price. Next, he subtracted off the amount of the sales tax. His total, though, is different than the sales clerk's total. What did Chase do wrong? He should have subtracted the discount and added the sales tax.
He should have subtracted the discount.
Nothing. The sales clerk has the wrong total.
He should have added the sales tax.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: yes, since the line has a steeper rate of change than the exponential the y-values will be greater and they will only intersect one time.

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.

1st integer x

2nd integer x+1

3rd integer x+2

4th integer x+3

x+x+1 +x+2+x+3 =74

combine like terms

4x+6 = 74

subtract 6 from each side

4x = 68

x = 17

the integers are 17,18,19,20
