Answer:

C. 21/26

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is determined by the change (or difference) in the y-coordinates divided by the change (or difference) in the x-coordinates.

Here, our y-coordinates are -16 and 5, so:

5 - (-16) = 5 + 16 = 21

Our x-coordinates are -8 and 18, so:

18 - (-8) = 18 + 8 = 26

Now, we divide: 21/26.

The answer is thus C.

Answer:

C. 21/26

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Plug in our coordinates:

m = (5 + 16)/(18 + 8)

m = 21/26

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You would have to start by doing $120 - $96 for the per-day fee, which leaves Calvin with $24 to spend on miles.

Next you would do $24 ÷ $0.60 to find the number of miles he can drive, which is 40 miles.
