Since you have two known points, you can use the slope formula. This is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), y2 being 12, y1 being 7, x2 being -39 and x1 being 26. So if you plug in the points it would be: (12-7)/(-39-26). This solved equals: -5/65 which simplified equals: -1/13. So the correct answer is A.

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: \frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}

\frac{12-7=5}{(-39)-26=-65}=\frac{5}{-65}=-\frac{1}{13}

<u><em>Slope is -1/13</em></u>

<u><em>Answer: A. </em></u>

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

How can you identify the opposite and the absolute value of a rational number???
Brut [27]
The absolute value is its distance on a number line from 0. The absolute value of 5 is five. The absolute value of -2.75 is 2.75. The opposite is basically the number multiplied by negative one(change the symbol). The opposite of a negative number is positive and the opposite of a positive number is negative.

Answer:

The missing information is attached in the picture below.

The company made $292.5 dollars in profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information provided by the table, we can calculate how much money was spent

1. gravel

12 and a half cubic yards * $15  = $187.5

2. tar/sealant

$0.15 per square foot * (75*20 ft^2) = $225

3. labor

$10 per hour * 25 hours = $250

4. insurance

fixed $45

We add all the expenses together

$(187.5 + 225 + 250 + 45)  = $707.5

The profit will be equal to

$1000 - $707.5 = $292.5

I need help to answer/ solve this
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

{x,y}={6,-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

[2]    y = -x + 5

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    x - 2•(-x +5) = 8

  [1]    3x = 18

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

[1]    3x = 18

[1]    x = 6

// By now we know this much :

   x = 6

   y = -x+5

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

  y = -(6)+5 = -1

Solution :

{x,y} = {6,-1}
