A flea weighs 8 decigrams, and an ant weighs 3 milligrams. How much more does a flea weigh than an ant?

2 answers:

8 0

It should be 7.97 decigrams, since you want to convert 3 milligrams to decigrams (0.03), it is asking "How much more" which means you subtract. 8 subtracted from 0.03 is 7.97.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The slope is $-50$ . The slope means that the amount of money in the account is decreasing at a rate of $ $50$ every week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinates are $(4,2400)\ and\ (12,2000)$

We need to find the slope of the graph, and explain what does slope means for this graph.

The formula for computing slope $(m)$ is

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

Where $(x_1.y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are the point on the line.

Let us plug points $(4,2400)\ and\ (12,2000)$ in the equation

$m=\frac{2000-2400}{12-4}\\ \\m=\frac{-400}{8}\\\\m=-50$

Here, the negative sign of slope $(m)$ represents that the value of the function (budget) is decreasing, with an increase in time (week).

The slope is $-50$ . The slope means that the amount of money in the account is decreasing at a rate of $ $50$ every week.

Answer:

Choices 1 and 4 are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find what the slope of the line is. That way, we can find out which possible answers are perpendicular to it:

$\frac{4-(-2)}{3-1}=\frac{6}{2}=3$

Since we now have the slope, we need the negative reciprocal of it. Remember: if x is the slope, it's negative reciprocal will be $-\frac{1}{x}$ . Therefore, if the line's slope is 3, then we need to find answers with a slope of $-\frac{1}{3}$ .

The first answer is correct, as you have marked. The second answer, while written a little weirdly, does show the slope as 3, which we know as wrong. The third choice is not correct, however. This equation is written in point-slope form, where $y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$ . The only variable we have to worry about is m, which, in the third choice, is 3. The fourth answer is correct, which sounds weird at first. Let's put that equation into slope-intercept form:
