What is the slope of the line through the points (4,2) and (-16,-6)

Mathematics

Answer:

2 / 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the rise over the run.

In this case, the rise is 2 - (-6) = 2 + 6 = 8.

The run is 4 - (-16) = 4 + 16 = 20.

So, the slope is 8 / 20 = 4 / 10 = 2 / 5.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

the slope of the line that goes through (4,2) and (-16,-6) is 2/5

m= 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the slope we use the ∆y/∆x which is really the change in y over the change in x.

so all you have to do is find your y's and X's.

your y's are -6 and 2

your X's are -16 and 4

now in order to find the change in y and x you subtract your y's and x'x

the formula for this is:

∆y/∆x = y1-y2/x1-x2= (m aka the slope)

y1 is -6

and y2 is 2

-6 - 2 = -8

now do the X's

X1 is -16

and X2 is 4

-16 - 4 = -20

put that in fraction form and it's -8/-20

simplify that you get 2/5

Order the following numbers from least to greatest.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

-5.5  -\sqrt{20}  \sqrt4  \frac{22}{7}  4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The numbers to order from least to greatest is given as:

-5.5, 4.5, 22/7,\sqrt4,-\sqrt{20}

In order to compare these numbers, we have to convert them in same form.

Let us simplify each number in decimal form.

-5.5 = -5.5\\\\4.5=4.5\\\\\frac{22}{7}=3.14\\\\\sqrt4=2\\\\-\sqrt{20}=-\sqrt{5\times 2^2}=-2\sqrt5=-4.47

So, the least number is one which has the largest value with a negative sign.

Here, -5.5 is the least number.

The next smallest number is -4.47. So, -\sqrt{20}

The next smallest number is 2. So, \sqrt4

The next smallest number is 3.14. So, \frac{22}{7}

The greatest number is 4.5.

Therefore, the order from the least to greatest is:

-5.5 < -\sqrt{20} < \sqrt4 < \frac{22}{7} < 4.5
