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! :)

Thank you so much! :)

Explain how to use a coordinate plane to find the area of a rectangle with vertices (–4, 9), (–4, –3), (–1, –3), and

mezya [45]

the formula for area of a rectangle is

Area = length x width

since both the length and the width of the rectangle lie on the same x and y axis, we can find the distance between the width and the distance between the length by subtracting

(-4,9) (-4,-3)

these points lie on the same x axis, so they create a vertical line

9-(-3) = 12

12 units is the distance between them

(-4,-3) (-1,-3)

these points lie on the same y axis, so they create a horizontal line

-1-(-4) = 3

3 units is the distance between them

now that we have the length and the width, we can find the area

A = 12 x 3

A = 36 units²

a survey survey asked 200 students to name their favorite fruit the table shows the results of a survey

stiv31 [10]

Part A

Fraction of peach 2/5

Total = 200

number of students that pick peach as their favorite fruits

$\begin{gathered} =\text{ }\frac{2}{5}\text{ x 200} \\ =\text{ }\frac{2\text{ x 200}}{5} \\ =\text{ }\frac{400}{5} \\ =\text{ 80 students} \end{gathered}$

Part B

number of students that pick orange as their favorite fruits

$\begin{gathered} =\frac{3}{8}\times200^{} \\ =\text{ }\frac{3\text{ x 200}}{8} \\ =\text{ }\frac{600}{8} \\ =\text{ 75} \end{gathered}$

number of students that pick plum as their favorite fruits

$\begin{gathered} =\text{ }\frac{1}{10}\text{ x 200} \\ =\text{ }\frac{200}{10} \\ =\text{ 20} \end{gathered}$

There are 55 more students that chose orange rather than plum.
