What single decimal multiplier would you use to increase by 14% followed by a 1% decrease?

1.1286

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing something by 14% is the same as taking 114% of it, and decreasing it by 1% is the same as taking 99% of it. 114% is 1.14 as a decimal, and 99% is 0.99 as a decimal, so multiplying the two together, we get the single decimal

1.14 · 0.99 = 1.1286

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0
