The slope of that line is -1. To find this you do the change of the y coordinates, or do -1-3, over the change of the x coordinates, or 5-1. You then get -4/4, which reduces to -1.

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

127

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a company delivers newspaper to the town of wayland. It has 158 customer on the north side of town, 378 customers on the west side, 237 customers on the south side

It does not depend on the side of the town

For the total town the total number of customer's = number of customer's is north side + the number of customer's in west side + number of customer's in south side

Total number of customer's = 158 + 378 + 237 = 773

Given that the company received a total number of 900 newspaper's

The number of newspaper left over = total number of newspaper's received - total number of customer's = 900-773 = 127

Therefore the total number of newspaper left over are 127

To find:

The rate in dollars per ounce.

$ dollar per ounce

$10.30 Dollar per pound = $0.64375
$ dollar per ounce

Therefore, the required rate is $0.64375 per ounce.
