Explanation NEEDS to be included! No fake answers please! Brainliest for the best! Thank You! Question: This pile of gold (photo below) is worth $50,000. Shrink the pile ( I already did it for you:) so that it is 18% of its height.

How much will the gold be worth? Explain your thinking.

I beleive the answer is $9000

Step-by-step explanation: What is 18% of 50000?

Y is 18% of 50000

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 18% * 50000

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 18%/100 = 0.18

Y = 0.18 * 50000

Y = 9000

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
