m=-(5/4)
From left to right, (1,3) is first and then comes (5,-2). Always remember when finding slopes without equations, the rule is RISE over RUN, to the numerator and denominator, respectively.
The y value of the second coordinates becomes negative which is unlike the y value in the first coordinates, which means our slope is downward, meaning it has a negative sign in front.
In every slope, there’s a numerator, being the rise, and a denominator, being the run.
To find the rise, we must look at the y values. Starting at 3 going to -2 has a space of 5 units, making that our numerator.
To find the run, the first x value is 1 and the second is 5, making a space of 4, which is out denominator.
With these two numbers and the negative sign, we get -(5/4) as our slope.
X = 8.5 because 8.5 x 2 = 17 and 17 + 1 = 18
Answer:
17c - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, add the normal numbers together:
7c + 4 + 10c - 6
4 - 6 = -2
7c + 10c - 2
Now, the two numbers with a c value can be added together:
7c + 10c = 17c
This returns the answer:
17c - 2
Hope this helps!
