Answer:

-7/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is  the difference in the y coordinates  / corresponding difference in the x coordinates.

here it is (16 - 9) / (-3-1)

= 7 / -4

= -7/4.

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}

Where:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) and(x_ {2}, y_ {2})are two points through which the line passes.

We have as data that:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 1,9)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 3,16)

Substituting we have:

m = \frac {16-9} {- 3-1} = \frac {7} {- 4} = - \frac {7} {4}

Thus, the slope of the line is- \frac {7} {4}

Answer:

m = - \frac {7} {4}

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

68 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Most drink containers in the United States are usually known as 2 Litres bottle.

Now, let's convert this 2 litres to cubic centimeters.

1 litre is equal to 1000 cm³

So, 2 Litres = 2000 cm³

Since there are 29.6 cm³ per fluid ounce, thus amount of ounces held by the typical cup in america = 2000/29.6 = 67.57 ounces ≈ 68 ounces

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

21%

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually there are three levels of process here.

If 100 calls are made only 70 calls are completed (since 30%not completed)

Out of these 70 completed we find that 40% i.e. 28 calls to a woman and 30% i.e. 21 go to a man.

28 females and 21 males

Out of 28 females 45% buy something =0.45*28=12.6

Out of 21 males 40% buy something = 0.4*21=8.4

Total percent of calls result in a sale = 12.6+8.4=21

So 21% of calls result in a sale
