Answer:

107%

Step-by-step explanation:

because if we look at the x-axis, Discount (%)

and look at 35 which is between 30 and 40

and start going up we get near 100

so

107%

or?

we use the two points and with that we find the slope first

[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

plug in (20,62) and (10,32)

[tex]\frac{32-62}{10-20}[/tex]

equals

[tex]\frac{-30}{-10}[/tex]

simplify to 3

then we use

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - 62 = 3 (x - 20)

y - 62 = 3x - 60

add 60 from both sides

y - 2  = 3x

add 2 to both sides

y=3x+2

then plug in 35

y= 3(35) + 2

which is

107
