Answer:
slope = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
2x + 3y = - 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
3y = - 2x - 12 ( divide all terms by 3 )
y = -
x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean:
(88 + 88 + 88 + 87 + 84 + 97 + 95)/7
627/7
89.57
90
Answer 6 hours
Reason
7x + 9.50 = 55
-9.50. -9.50 subtract from both sides
_____________
7x = 45.50
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x
X = 6.5
So he can rent for 6 hours (the .5 would be charged as a full hour per the problem)
