Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 times 1/2 equals .25 (.25 is 1/4 which is half of 1/2)
1/2 divided by 1/2 is 1( 1 is 1/2 plus 1/2)
A negative slope means the line would be going downward, so you would go down first (instead of up as with a positive slope), then over right.
Therefore, you would go down 4 (or negative 4 considering you are going down) and right 1.
Rise over run still applies here. Rise over run is a fancy way of saying to put the number (or slope) in fraction form.
-4 as a fraction would be -4/1.
So start at (5,3), go down 4 and over 1, repeatedly and you got it.
**Just remember the rise over run can be confusing with negative slopes.**
Answer:
54
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 5x = 99
11x = 99
x=99/11
x=9
6x = 6x9 = 54
5x = 5x9 = 45
<em>ans: </em><u><em>54</em></u>
