Greetings!

To solve for the slope using the two points, we can use the slope formula:
m= \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Input the points into the formula:
m= \frac{-2-3}{5-1}

Simplify the equation:
m= \frac{-5}{4}

The Slope Is:
\boxed{\frac{-5}{4}}

I hope this helped!

M= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Plug in the points.

m= (-2-3)/(5-1)

m= -5/4

"D" is the correct answer.

I hope this helps!

Mara thinks x&lt; 6 will earn the highest score here.
Mamont248 [21]

This question was not correctly written

Correct Question

Mara thinks x ≤ 6 will earn the highest score here.

David thinks x < 6 will.

Who is correct?

Answer:

Mara is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we are given two inequality equations

1) Mara: x ≤ 6

2) David : x < 6

For David , x < 6 means the score which is represented by x is less than 6

For Mara, x ≤ 6 means the score which is represented by x is less than or equal to 6

Therefore, Mara is correct because x ≤ 6 will earn the highest score here.

Who is correct chris or sam
Advocard [28]
Lacey, because you have to do the opposite when you want to get rid of a number. She subtracted 20 because it was originally positive 20. Chris messed up and did not do the opposite, subtraction, and instead he added 20
