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.

1. Jenny has a brand new home, and would like to be very adventurous in her decorating. She would like to put a series of murals
VashaNatasha [74]

Rectangular implies the area to be length times height  

let height=x  

let width=2 more than the height or Length=2+x  

Area=F(x)=(2+x)(x)=2x+x^2  

f(x)=x^2+2x  

****************To Answer your Additional question  

You see the standard price is $100 for any mural, And also charges $40 per square foot.  

So to show you the approach, Lets say that a mural of 1 square feet needs to be painted, then the charge will be $100 plus the $40 for every square feet, then it will be 100+40(1 square feet)=$140.  

The problem asks for the charge of mural whose area is x, so lets do the same thing.  

$100+40(x square feet)=100+40x and that is the function that gives the price of mural with an area of x.

so, g(x)=100+40x
