A star is written to show multiplication. It is a replacement for a dot or a x which is what you probably learned to be the "times" sign. In upper level maths, the "x" is replaced with a " * " to make it more legible and to avoid confusion with the variable "x".
Answer:
Gradient = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
The gradient of a line is the slope of the line.
The standard form of the line equation is y = mx + b
where m is the slope ( or gradient) b is the y - intercept.
Given :
2y = -10x + 1
20+64=84 40+44=84 74+10=84 30+54=84
Decimals that contain a zero in the tenth position can be thought of as a fraction over 100 as the tenth isn't occupied and the hundredth correlates to the 100 as a denominator. The same goes for a number with the tenth position occupied. These decimals would be put over 10 as they are occupying that position in the decimal.
