The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (15, 130) amd (1, 160). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{160-130}{1-15}=\dfrac{30}{-14}=-\dfrac{15}{7}$

Hi there! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

$Slope=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{160-130}{1-15}=\frac{30}{-14}=\frac{30/2}{-14/2}=\frac{15}{-7}=-\frac{15}{7}$

Therefore, the slope is -15/7.

Final answer is -15/7.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

-Charlie

Thank you so much! :)

determine the base, b, of the exponential model. Is the base a growth or decay factor? a. b is 0.6394; It is a growth factor. b.

Kazeer [188]

An exponential model can be described by the function
$f(x) = a(b)^x$
where: a is the initial population or the starting number, b is the base and x is the number of periods elapsed.

When the base of an exponential model is greater than 1 it is called a growth factor, but when it is less than 1 it is called a decay factor.

Given the exponential model
$n=20.5(0.6394)^t$
n is the final output of the exponential model, 20.5 is the starting number, 0.6394 is the base and t is the number of periods/time elapsed.

Here, the base is 0.6394 which is less than 1, hence a decay factor.

Therefore, the base, b, of the exponential model is 0.6394; It is a decay factor.

Which of the following describes how to translate the graph y = |x| to obtain the graph of y = |x + 1| + 1?

Marta_Voda [28]

You would shift one unit left and one unit up using the formula y=mx+b the b is the y coordinate and the number added or subtracted from the x is the coordinate

How do u make this 4/4?

Oksana_A [137]

well, if look at the timetable, She got the 08:30am train from Aberystwyth and arrives on time at Shrewsbury, from the timetable we know she arrived at 10:17am, now she did some rigamarole and got back to the Train station at Shrewsbury 4 hours later. Well, we know she arrived at 10:17am, if we add 4 hours to that that'll make it 1417 or namely 2:17pm.

well, the Train arrives at Shrewsbury a 14 19, or 2:19pm, she is there at 2:17pm, so she's really 2 minutes before the Train arrives at Shrewsbury, she's right on time, possibly with some munchies too.

14 19 > 14 17.
