Answer:

(4/x)-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of 4 and the number x means we are dividing 4 by x, so we get 4/x

Then we have the 'one less than' part, meaning we subtract one from (4/x), so we get (4/x)-1

Hope this helps

What is the slope of a line through (1,9) and (-3, 16)

Nady [450]

The slope of the line is -7/4.

The formula for slope is:

$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

lets say (1,9) 1 is x1 and 9 is y1

(-3,16) -3 is x2 and 16 is y2

$\frac{16-9}{-3-1}$

which equal

$-\frac{7}{4}$

Please help I don’t get how to do it.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) -2g

putting the value of g

-2 $(\frac{3}{-1} )$

opening the brackets by multiplying

= $(\frac{-6}{1})$ =-2g

b)f+3g

= $\frac{-2}{4}+\frac{9}{-3}$

taking LCM AS 12

= $\frac{-2*3}{4*3} +\frac{9*4}{-3*4}$

=-6/12-36/12

=-42/12

=-7/2

c)2f-4g

= $2(\frac{-2}{4})-4(\frac{3}{-1} )$

= $\frac{-4}{4}-\frac{12}{-1}$

=-1+12

=11
