Mathematics

Ilya [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The slope of the line between the points (2,-1) and (5,-3) is m=-\frac{2}{3}

Therefore m=-\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the line between the points (2,-1) and (5,-3)

To find the slope of the line between the points (2,-1) and (5,-3) :

The formula for slope is m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Let (x_1,y_1) , (x_2,y_2) be the given points (2,-1) and (5,-3) respectively

Now substitute the values of the points in the formula

m=\frac{-3-(-1)}{5-2}

=\frac{-3+1}{3}

=\frac{-2}{3}

Therefore m=-\frac{2}{3}

The slope of the line between the points (2,-1) and (5,-3) is m=-\frac{2}{3}

How to convert improper fractions to a mixed numeral
Deffense [45]
Say for example, you have the improper fraction 18/7
The first step is to find out how many times 7 fits into 18
This looks like flipping the fraction, 7/18 = 2 whole times  with 4 parts left over
The 4 left over gets put in front of the original number (7) to give 2 4/7

To check if you have done it correctly, multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator ( 7 ) and then add the numerator.
2 x 7 = 14 + 4 = 18

Hope this helps

0.45 plus 9x equals 27
oee [108]

Answer:

x = 2.95

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Convert words into an expression</u>

0.45 plus 9x equals 27

0.45 + 9x = 27

<u>Step 2:  Solve for x</u>

0.45 + 9x - 0.45 = 27 - 0.45

9x / 9 = 26.55 / 9

x = 2.95

Answer:  x = 2.95
