What is the result when the number 15 is decreased by 44%? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

It's 8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

15 * 44%

= 15 *44/100

= 15 * 0.44

= 6.6

15 - 6.6 = 8.4

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.

3 is greater then both of those numbers
