Interpret the slope for the situation: the number of people who worked for the railroads in the united states each year from 1989 to 1995 can be modeled by the equation y = -6.61x + 229, where x represents the number of years since 1989 and y represents the number of railroad employees (in thousands).

-6.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Unless there is more included in this problem then -6.61 is the slope. Slope is represented as m in y=mx+b. Simply substituting in the slop and y-intercept shows that m=-6.61 or the slope is -6.61.

step-by-step explanation:

total amount to be paid = $19.5

step-by-step explanation:

given ,

original price = $25.99

discount = 25%

discount amount = 25% of original price

discount amount = 25/100   * 25.99

discount amount = $6.49

hence , the total amount to be paid = original price - discount amount

                                                            = $25.99 - $6.49

                                                            =$19.5

total amount to be paid = $19.5
