Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we need to find the y-intercept (b). In order to find the y-intercept, we can plug in the slope and the (x,y) coordinate pair given to us into the equation to solve for the y-intercept:
y=mx+b
4=(-7/-2)*-2+b
4=14/-2+b
4=-7+b
Add 7 to both sides
b=11
Therefore the equation is:
(note that the fraction is positive since the two negatives cancel out)
Answer:
-9/5 is the slope

1.3 million stocks was there in beginning of the day
In the question, it is already given that the total number of runners in the race is 60 and out of them 1/3 dropped out in the first half. In the second half 1/4 of the remaining runners dropped out.
Now
Total number of runners in the race = 60
Number of runners that dropped out in the first half = 1/3 * 60
= 20
Number of runners remaining = 60 - 20
= 40
Number of runners dropping out in the second half = 40 * 1/4
= 10
Then the number of runners that finished the race = 40 - 10
= 30
Then 30 runners completed the race.
