Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Lesson: Exploring Slope and Slope-intercept form</h2>

Slope formula: $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\frac{(-16)-5=-21}{3-(-2)=3+2=5}=\frac{-21}{5}=-\frac{21}{5}$

Therefore, the slope is -21/5

Answer is -21/5

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

Answer in standard form PLEASE.

0.9 x 10^4

Let’s break this down into steps.

So to start off with, you need to do 4.5/5 which = 0.9.

Now we can deal with the indices. 10^-3 / 10^-7 means we have to subtract them. Therefore, -3 - -7 = 4. Altogether, we have 0.9 x 10^4

The question states we should leave our answer in standard form.

So our answer is 0.9 x 10^4.

Using the given equation find the missing coordinates of the points and then find the slope of the line for each equation y=3.5x

dangina [55]

Y=3.5x+4
a) 5=3.5x+4, 3.5x=1, x=1/3.5=2/7
b) y=3.5*10+4=35+4=39
