Hello!

You already have the answer, but I'll show you how to get it:

Subtract 4 3/5 (That's his old height) from 5 3/8 (That's his new height):

5 3/8 - 4 3/5 = 0.625

Now you want to convert 0.625 to a fraction.

Simplify: 0.625 = 625/1000

And 625/1000 is equivalent to 5/8.

So, your answer is 5/8, and those were the steps to find it! ^^ I hope this was helpful! :)

What is the slope that passes through the points (-5,0) and (-3,1)
tangare [24]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When given two points, we can find the slope by

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

    = (1-0)/(-3- -5)

     = (1-0) / (-3+5)

      = 1/2

What is the slope of this graph
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The slope of the line = m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The points

  • (0, 0)
  • (1, 2)

To determine:

The slope of this graph

Determining the slope between (0, 0) and (1, 2)

  • (x₁, y₁) = (0, 0)
  • (x₂, y₂) = (1, 2)

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

               =  [2 - 0] / [1 - 0]

               = 2 / 1  

Thus, the slope of the line = m = 2

There are two different maps of ohio. The scale on the first map is 1 cm to 10 km. The distance from cleveland to clncinnati is
Ivanshal [37]

1. To answer this question we must keep on mind that we already have the distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati.

2. They tell us that it is 40 centimeters on the first map.

3. If on the first map 1cm = 10km then:

40cm = 10km * 40 = 400km

4. Then the distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati is 400 kilometers.

5. On the second map 1cm = 50km

6. Then we want to know how many centimeters represents 400 kilometers on the second map. Therefore:

400/50= 8

 The answer is: 8 centimeters.
