Hey!

------------------------------------------------

Slope Formula: m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

------------------------------------------------

Solution:

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \\m = \frac{9 - 7}{-1 - 5}\\m = \frac{2}{-6} \\m = \frac{1}{-3}

------------------------------------------------

Answer:

\large\boxed{-\frac{1}{3} }

------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

Sam said the square root of a rational number must be a rational number. Jenna disagreed. She said that it is possible that the
ratelena [41]

Jenna is correct because the square root of a rational number can still be irrational.

Take for example the square root of 2. It is an irrational number than goes 1.41421...

If you multiply just the first however many digits of the result by itself, you will never end up with a perfect 2, because the square root is irrational.

Can u help this helpless 9th grader ?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

y = 4x + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Temperature at sunrise = 32°F

y is the temperature after x hours of sunrise

Temperature change is 4°F/hour.

The equation of a line in slope intercept form is given by

y = mx +c

where m is the slope, which is the change in value of y to the value of x

and c is the value of y at x = 0

At sunrise, x =0 and y =32

∴ c = 32

Also we see that the change in temperature to that of time is 4/1 = 4

∴ m = 4

Substituting the values of m and c in the equation of line, we have

y = 4x +32

this is part 2 and you just have to find the total area in sq ft and also answer how much material do you need to make 3 backpac
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

1. 1 1/8= 18/16

5/16*2= 10/16

4/16*2= 8/16

9/16= 9/16

1/2= 8/16


18/16 + 10/16 + 8/16 + 9/16 + 8/16= 53/16

Simplify:

4 & 5/16sq ft

2. All you do is multiply that by 3... so 4 & 5/16 = 53/16 53/16*3 = 159/16 = 9 & 15/16 sq ft

What is equivalent to 3 to the negative 2nd power
VladimirAG [237]
3 to the negative second power is written like this: 3^{-2}. 

When simplifying an expression with a negative exponent, you take a positive version of the exponent, in this case that would be 2, and apply that to the base. 
After doing that, we have 9. 
The next step is to put one over that number.
In this case, now after doing that the answer is \frac{1}{9}. 

Hope this helps!
