To find slope, we must find the change in y values divided by the change in x values, also called the rise/run. This is modeled below:

Slope = m = (y1 - y2)/(x1-x2) = (6-(-3))/(1 - (-6)) = (6+3)/(1+6) = 9/7

We can check that this answer is correct by consulting the graph. The graph shows a positive correlation (means that the slope should be positive), and if you count the graph unit squares, you get that the graph moves up 9 squares and over 7 squares between the two points shown, letting us know we got the right answer.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

448

Step-by-step explanation:

(4 pt/da)×(7 da/wk)×(16 oz/pt) = 448 oz/wk

That would be 448 fluid ounces per week.

In the triangle below, 4/5 represents which ratio?

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:
sin (C)

Explanation:
In a right-angled triangle, special trig functions can be applied. These functions are as follows:
sin (theta) = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

cos (theta) = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

tan (theta) = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ 

Now, let's check the triangle we have:
We have two options:
First option:
5 is the hypotenuse of the triangle
4 is the side adjacent to angle B
Therefore, we can apply the cos function:
cos (B) = $\frac{4}{5}$ 

Second option:
5 is the hypotenuse of the triangle
4 is the side opposite to angle C
Therefore, we can apply the sin function:
sin (C) = $\frac{4}{5}$

Among the two options, the second one is the one found in the choices. Therefore, it will be the correct one.

Hope this helps :)
