15 POINTS! What is the correct answer for Dean's problem? Explain where he went wrong.

Mathematics

Answer:

The slope is 5/-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is y1-y2 over m1-m2 (rise over run). The first ordered pair is -2 (m1) and 11 (y1). We then subtract the second ordered pair (4 (m2) and -4 (y2)) from the first.

11 - (-4) = 11 + 4 = 15

-2 - 4 = -6

Remember, slope is rise over run (y over x), so the slope is 15/-6. Now, we must simplify. 15/-6 = 5/-2

Dean went wrong because he thought that slope was run over rise (x over y). If he had switched the two numbers, his answer would have been correct.

The sum of two numbers is 981. One of the numbers is 703. What is the other number?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Other number is 278.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

a + b = 981

One of the numbers = 703

We assume that it is a ; So

a = 703

Other number = b = ?

Put value of a in a + b

a + b = 981

703 + b = 981

b = 278
