Answer:

$\frac{6}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Slope= </em> $\frac{Y_{2}-Y_{1} }{X_{2} -X_{1} }$ = $\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{6-12}{5- (-3)}$

You want to use the slope as y2-y1 over x2-x1. So you subtract 6 from 12 and 5 from negative 3. Hope this helps.

Help first gets brainly

pentagon [3]

Answer:

1. 100 1. 150 1. 1

2.45 2. 800

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 25% * 400 = 0.25 * 400 = $\frac{1}{4}$ * 400 = 100

2. 50% * 90 = 45

1. 75% * 200 = 0.75 * 200 = 3/4 * 200 = 150

2. 10% * 8000 = 0.1 * 8000 = 800

1. 5% * 20 = 0.05 * 20 = 1

Write the equation of the line in Point-Slope Form

katrin [286]

17.

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

We have slope=m=8, and the point (-5, -3). Substitute:

$y-(-3)=8(x-(-5))\\\\\boxed{y+3=8(x+5)}$

18.

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (3, 4) and (15, 10). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{10-4}{15-3}=\dfrac{6}{12}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

The point-slope form:

$\boxed{y-4=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-3)}$

$\boxed{y-10=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-15)}$
