$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{11}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{18}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{18-1}{-7-11}\implies \cfrac{17}{-18}$

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: $m=\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}$

Rise/run.

$\frac{rise}{run}$

$\frac{18-1=17}{(-7)-11=-18}=\frac{17}{-18}$

Answer: $=\frac{17}{-18}$

Slope is $\frac{17}{-18}$

Hope this helps!

234 chocolates are to be packed into boxes Each of which will contain 11 chocolates. How many boxes of chocolates will there be?

vazorg [7]

Hello!

Divide the total amount of chocolates by the number of chcolates each box will contain.

234 ÷ 11 = 21.2727272727

It is a repeating decimal. Now, obviously there won't be 21.2727272727 boxes chcolates.

11 × 21 = 231

11 × 22 = 242

If you multiply 11 by 21, you get 231 -- which is 3 less than the total amount of chocolates. But if you multiply it by 22, you get a number that is greater than 234, so it is not possible.

ANSWER:

There will be 21 boxes of chocolates, and 3 left over.

Write the linear equation in slope-intercept form -4x + 2y = 10

ella [17]

You know slope intercept form is y=mx+b so just put in that form by:
Adding 4x to other side
2y=10+4x
Then divide by 2
Y=10/2 +4/2x
Simplify
Y=5+2x
I rearranged so x is first so your answer would be: y=2x+5

a passenger elevator in the sears tower in chicago can lift people 960 feet in 1 minute and 30 seconds. How fast must the freigh

OleMash [197]

Given that a passenger elevator in the sears tower in Chicago can lift people 960 feet in 1 minute and 30 seconds (1.5 minutes). This means that the lift is travelling with a speed of:

 $speed= \frac{distance}{time} = \frac{960}{1.5} =640ft/min$

If the elevator lifts cargo through the same height in 2 minutes and 30 seconds (2.5 minutes), then the speed is given by:

 $speed= \frac{960}{2.5} =384ft/min$
