To find the slope(m), use the slope formula:
And plug in the two points on the line
(-3, 7) = (x₁, y₁)
(5, -1) = (x₂, y₂)

(two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive)

Simplify the fraction
m = -1
Answer:
Here is the ans...hope it helps
Answer:
D. Subtract 8 from both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
you will have x= 12 which will be the answer :)
"<span>The sum of the squares of the digits is 26"
</span>10t + u = 26 ---->(1)
<span>"If the number is decreased by the number with its digits reversed, the result is 36"
u - 10t =36 -----> (2)
By subtracting the equation we can find t.
</span> u+10t = 26)<span>
-(u-10t=36)</span>
______________
0u +20t = 26 -36
---> 20t = -10
t= -10/20
t= -1/2
Inserting value t in (1)
10t + u = 26
10(-1/2) + u= 26
-5+u=26
u= 26+5 = 31
<span>
Using u and t in the original expression 10t+u express a positive number
10t+u
= 10(-1/2) +u
= -5 + 31
= 26
----> Proves this statement is true
</span>"The sum of the squares of the digits is 26"
10t + u = 26 <span>
