Answer:

m = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from the point (-1, 7) to the point (3, 5), x increases by 4 (this is the "run") and y decreases by 2 (this is the "rise").

Thus, the slope of the line connecting these two points is

m = rise / run = -2/4, or m = -1/2.

Answer:

A. x = 3.03

B. x = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 2000 (x-0.03) = 6000 is quickly simplified byu dividing both sides by 2000:

(x - 0.03) = 3. Removing the parentheses, we get: x = -0.03 = 3, or x = 3.03.

B. The distributive property is the faster method here. We determine that the LCD is 12 and multiply both sides of this equation 1/4 (4+x) = 4/3 by 12:

3(4 + x) = 16

and then carry out the indicated multiplication: 12 + 3x = 16, or

3x = 4, or x = 4/3

$\dfrac{c^2-4}{6c^4+15c^3}\div\dfrac{c^2+4c+4}{12c^3+30c^2}=\dfrac{c^2-2^2}{3c^3(2c+5)}\div\dfrac{c^2+2(c)(2)+2^2}{6c^2(2c+5)}\\\\_{\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\ \text{and}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2}\\\\=\dfrac{(c-2)(c+2)}{3c^3(2c+5)}\cdot\dfrac{6c^2(2c+5)}{(c+2)^2}=\dfrac{(c-2)}{c}\cdot\dfrac{2}{(c+2)}=\boxed{\dfrac{2(c-2)}{c(c+2)}}$
