The slope of this line is -1/6.
2 Point: (6,2) (-6,6)
x₁ y₁ x₂ y₂
Remember:
rise change in y y₂ - y₁ 6 - 2 4
---------- = ------------------- = ------------- = ----------- = ----------
run change in x x₂ - x₁ -6 - 6 -12
Simplify 4/-12
4 ÷ 4 1
------- = ------------- = -1/3
-12 ÷ 4 -3
The slope of the line is -1/3.
The slope intercept form looks like y=mx+b (m-slope, b is the y intercept)
y+3=1/2(x-2)
y=(1/2)x-(2/2)-3
y=(1/2)x-4
Answer: 12.50$
Explanation: 5.25$ (per pound) and he wants 3 pounds so we multiply 5.25x3 which equals 15.75 and then we subtract 3.25 (because of the coupon) which makes your final answer 12.50$
