Answer:

Increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

In March 2007, the unemployment rate was 4.4 percent. In August 2008 was 6.1 percent. We need to remember that the unemployment rate equals the number of unemployed people divided by the people in the labor force.

Now, if we consider that the labor force remained constant during this period of time (according to the problem) then this would mean that the number of unemployed people actually increased during this period of 17 months.

What is the value of p if the line that passes through (2,-4) and (p,8) has a slope of 1/2? ​
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,-4)....x1= 2 and y1 = -4

(p,8).....x2 = p and y2 = 8

slope(m) = 1/2

now use the slope formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) and sub in what we know...

slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2- x1)

1 / 2 = (8 - (-4) / (p - 2)

1 / 2 = (8 + 4) / (p - 2)

1/2 = 12 / (p - 2) .....now multiply both sides by (p - 2)

1/2(p - 2) = 12

1/2p - 1 = 12

1/2p = 12 + 1

1/2p = 13

p = 13 / (1/2)

p = 13 * 2/1

p = 26

so the value of p is 26
