Answer:

Explanation:
-40 - 6m + 1 = - 2
- Simplify Both Sides Of The Equation
−40 − 6m + 1 = −2
−40 + −6m + 1 = −2
(−6m) + (−40 + 1) = −2 (Combine Like Terms)
−6m + −39 = −2
= −6m − 39 = −2
−6m − 39 + 39 = −2 + 39
−6m = 37
-6m / -6 = 37 / -6

2/8 divided by 1/4. Steps: 1. Division in math actually means multiplication. You just have to multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction (reciprocal= denominator and numerator are switched). 2. Do 2/8 times 4/1. 3. 2 times 4= 8 and 8 times 1= 8
4. Your answer would be 8/8 which equals 1. This is how you divide fractions
To find the slope take two ordered pairs and put them in form of x2-x1/y2-y1 and then you can find the slope.
(-2,17) (-3,20)
(-2)-(-3) = 1
(17)-(20)=-3
slope is 1/-3
