Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
The line has a "rise" between the two points of -4 units for a "run" of +1 unit. The slope is the ratio ...
m = rise/run = -4/1 = -4.
The slope is -4.

<em>Additional comment</em>
A "whole number" must be non-negative. Here, the slope is negative. If you're restricted to "a fraction or a whole number", then the appropriate answer is the fraction -4/1. We suspect that "integer" is meant where "whole number" is used.
28 x 75% = 21

The unit rate is 2/3 because in the line y=2/3x, 2/3 is the slope (y=mx+b). The slope of the line is pretty much the definition of a unit rate because the unit rate is a constant addition or subtraction over and over. In addition, it is a straight line(y=mx+b) and the values are going up at a constant rate of 2/3.
To solve for proportion we make use of the z statistic.
The procedure is to solve for the value of the z score and then locate for the
proportion using the standard distribution tables. The formula for z score is:
z = (X – μ) / σ
where X is the sample value, μ is the mean value and σ is
the standard deviation
when X = 70
z1 = (70 – 100) / 15 = -2
Using the standard distribution tables, proportion is P1
= 0.0228
when X = 130
z2 = (130 – 100) /15 = 2
Using the standard distribution tables, proportion is P2
= 0.9772
Therefore the proportion between X of 70 and 130 is:
P (70<X<130) = P2 – P1
P (70<X<130) = 0.9772 - 0.0228
P (70<X<130) = 0.9544
Therefore 0.9544 or 95.44% of the test takers scored
between 70 and 130.
