Answer:

The answer to your question is m = -5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Point 1 = (1, -6)

Point 2 = (-8, 9)

Process

To find the slope just substitute the values in the formula and simplify.

Formula

slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

-Identify x1, y1, x2 and y2

x1 = 1 y1 = -6 x2 = -8 y2 = 9

-Substitution

m = (9 + 6) / (-8 - 1)

-Simplification

m = 15/-9

-Result

m = -5/3

Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you subtract 6 from both sides and you end up with a² = 1. Since one cannot be squared or square rooted, a = 1. I hope this helps!

Write each fraction as a unit fraction<br> 12/84<br> 13/143<br> 23/138

alexandr1967 [171]

A unit fraction is a fraction whose numerator is 1.

$\frac{12}{84}=\frac{12 \div 12}{84 \div 12}=\frac{1}{7} \\ \\
\frac{13}{143}=\frac{13 \div 13}{143 \div 13}=\frac{1}{11} \\ \\
\frac{23}{138}=\frac{23 \div 23}{138 \div 23}=\frac{1}{6}$
