Answer:

(6-u)/(6-7)= (6-u)/-1= 8

6 - u = -8

-u = -14

u = 14

Answer:u = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

From the information given,

Slope = - 8

y2 = 6

y1 = u

x2 = 6

x1 = 7

Therefore,

- 8 = (6 - u)/(6 - 7)

- 8 = (6 - u)/ - 1

6 - u = 8

u = 6 - 8 = - 2

Multiplying function by any number between 0 and 1 exclusive would compress function vertically.

Adding constant value of function would shift function vertically. Negative constant shifts it down

So that would be "It is vertically compressed" and "It is shifted down"

What is 7/25 in decimal form
timama [110]

Every fraction is just a short way to write a division.
Whenever you see a fraction, it means

            the top number
divided by
            the bottom number.

When you actually do the division, like with a pencil or a calculator,
the quotient you get is the decimal form of the fraction.

I won't insult your intelligence by giving you  7  divided by  25 .
I'm sure you can do that easily.

I also won't insult your intelligence by sending you to a web site.
I assume that if you were on a desert island without your phone
or any 4G coverage, you'd be able to figure out a way to divide
7 by 25.
