The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)

Because none of the points on the number line are above 0, we know that the points will be negative.
This eliminates the second and third choices, as they contain positive numbers.
The first point, A, is a number less than -0.5 or -1/2
The first choice matches A with -5/16, which is less than -0.5 or -1/2
Therefore, the fourth choice must be the correct answer.
Answer:
y=2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
First simplify: y-1=2x-6
y-1=2(x-3)
First simplify and distribute everything.
<u>y-1=2x-6</u>
So, x equals 2 because it got distributed into the numbers inside the parenthesis. Same with the 2 and -3. They multiplied to become -6.
Since it's y-1=2x-6, you can simplify it even more so the -1 goes to the other side and turns into positive 1.
<u>y - 1 (+ 1) = 2x -6 (+ 1)</u>
-1(+1)=0 which leaves just the variable y on the <em><u>left side</u></em>.
-6(+1)=-5 which leaves 2x-5 on the <em><u>right side</u></em>.
This results in y=2x-5. Hope this helped ;)
Answer:
B. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The range of a data set in statistics is the difference between the largest and the smallest values. While range does have different meanings within different areas of statistics and mathematics, this is its most basic definition, and is what is used by the provided calculator.
example, 2,10,21,23,23,38,38
38 - 2 = 36
