To find slope, use the equation:
slope = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}<span>
<span>where x_{2} and y_{2} are the x and y values of one coordinate point, and x_{1} and y_{1} are the x and y values of another coordinate point . Since we are given two coordinate points, that means we can find the slope using the slope equation.

</span></span>

Let's choose (6, 0) as your (x_{2},&#10;y_{2}) point and (0, -2) as your (x_{1}, y_{1}) point, but you can switch those if you want! That makes x_{2} = 6, y_{2} = 0 and x_{1} = 0, y_{1} = -2. Plug these values into the slope equation and simplify:

\frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\&#10; = \frac{ 0 - (-2) }{6-0} \\&#10; = \frac{2}{6} \\&#10;=  \frac{1}{3}

Answer: Slope = \frac{1}{3}

Solve for m:<br> -5(m - 3) + 6 = 2(m - 5)
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

<h2>m =  \frac{31}{7}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(m - 3) + 6 = 2(m - 5)

<u>Expand the terms in the bracket</u>

That's

- 5m + 15 + 6 = 2m - 10

- 5m + 21 = 2m - 10

<u>Subtract 2m from both sides</u>

- 5m - 2m + 21 = 2m - 2m - 10

- 7m + 21 = - 10

<u>Subtract 21 from both sides</u>

That's

- 7m + 21 - 21 = - 10 - 31

- 7m = - 31

<u>Divide both sides by - 7</u>

We have the final answer as

<h3>m =  \frac{31}{7}</h3>

Hope this helps you

Leo prepared 16 kilograms of dough after
tatuchka [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

16 kg= 8 hours (divide by 8 to find 1 hour how many kg)

2kg=1 hour ( multiply by 9 as we need to find 18 kg

so 9 hours=18kg

So it'll take 9 hours for 18 kg of dough to be made

Hope this helps!!!

Have a nice day:)
