What is the slope of the line that passes thru (7,2) and (9,6)?

Hey there Hopire :)
To solve this, we'll use the slope given two points formula. Here it is:

y2-y1/x2-x1

Plug in the values.

6-2/9-7 =

4/2 =

2

Therefore, the slope is two, meaning 2/1 because slope is rise/run. That means that for every two you go up, you go one to the right because it's a positive slope- left for negatives.

Hope this helped!

At the end of a party, there are 3 pizzas left over. Each person will eat 2/8 of a pizza. How many people will 3 pizza feed?

Georgia [21]

First, convert 3 into a fraction with denominator 8.

(3 pizzas)(8/8 pizzas)=24/8 pizzas

Then, divide 24/8 pizzas by 2/8 pizzas per 1 person.

(24/8 pizzas)(2/8 pizzas/person)

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal:

(24/8)/(2/8)=(24/8)×(8/2) the 8s cancel and you are left with 24/2=12

3 pizzas will feed 12 people.

Algebra help please!!!!!

Y = 3x - 6....to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
0 = 3x - 6
-3x = -6
x = -6/-3
x = 2......so the x int here is 2

y = 3x - 6...when the slope is decreased by 2...
y = x - 6...this is the slope decreased by 2
0 = x - 6
-x = -6
x = 6.....so the x int here is 6

so ur answer is : the x int increases
