You can find the slope either by just looking at the line or using the slope formula.
#1: The slope formula is:
Find two points and plug it into the formula
I will use (0, 2) and (1, -1)
(0, 2) = (x₁, y₁)
(1, -1) = (x₂, y₂)
[two negatives cancel each other out and become positive]
m = -3
#2: To find the slope without having to do the work, you use this:
Rise is the number of units you go up(+) or down(-) from each point
Run is the number of units you go to the right from each point
If we start at a defined/obvious point, like (0, 2), find the next point and see how many units it goes up or down and to the right. The next point is (1, -1), so from each point, you go down 3 units and to the right 1 unit. So your slope is -3/1 or -3. You can make sure the slope is right by looking at another point.
The answer is 6.
36^ 1/2 = the square root of 36 = 6
5 : 3
D1 = 3km = 3000 m (1km = 1000m)
D2 = 1800m
Ratio of D1:D2
=3000/1800
=1000/600 (dividing by 3)
=10/6 (dividing by 100)
=5/3 (dividing by 2)
= 5 : 3
Answer:
3/2x-2>5 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Two less than a number means we are subtracting 2, so we can write it into the equation as -2.
Since we dont know the value of x, we can just write 3/2 of x by multiplying 3/2 by x. So 3/2x. Also, since we are subtracting two from 3/2x, -2 comes after 3/2x.
Now, since it says that it is more than 5 1/2, we could use the greater than sign (>), to express that. So >5 1/2
Our final expression is 3/2x-2>5 1/2.
Hope this helps!
