Answer:

= -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope through two points can be found by

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

= (-4-1)/(3--1)

= (-4-1)/(3+1)

= -5/4

I need help what’s the answer to this Y = x + 1

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: well, the answer can really be any two numbers, as long as y is one more than x. EXAMPLE: 16 = 15 + 1, 7 = 6 + 1, -54 = -55 + 1, etc

What is the equation of the line that passes through (–2, 3) and is parallel to 2x + 3y = 6?

Zinaida [17]

2x + 3y = 6
3y = - 2x + 6
y = -2/3x + 2....slope here is -2/3
A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = - 2/3
(-2,3)...x = -2 and y = 3
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y intercept
3 = -2/3(-2) + b
3 = 4/3 + b
3 - 4/3 = b
9/3 - 4/3 = b
5/3 = b

ur equation is : y = -2/3x + 5/3 (slope intercept form)

y = -2/3x + 5/3
2/3x + y = 5/3
2x + 3y = 5 (standard form)

What is equivalent to 24/16

gulaghasi [49]

We can convert 24/16 to a mixed number. It will be equivalent to 24/16.

24/16
24 ÷ 16 = 1.5
16 can go in to 24 once.
24 - 16 = 8

1 = whole number
8 = numerator
16 = denominator

Lets write our mixed number:-

$1 \frac{8}{16}$

This can be simplified ^^^^

$\frac{8/8}{16/8} = \frac{1}{2}$

So, our old mixed number simplified is $1 \frac{1}{2}$

So, 24/16 is equivalent to 1. $1 \frac{8}{16}$ , 2. $1 \frac{1}{2}$

Hope I helped ya!!! xD
