Its $m=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\dfrac{7-(-5)}{-2-2}=\dfrac{12}{-4}=\boxed{-3}$ .

Melanie has a piece of cloth 12 and 1/3 yards long. How many 3/4 yard-long pieces can be cut from the cloth?

Harrizon [31]

This is a division problem. First, get 12 1/3 into fraction form instead of mixed number form to make your life easier;
$12 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{36}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{37}{3} 
$
Now, divide the two fractions. Since this is fraction division, the reciprocal is flipped and the two fractions multiplied.
$\frac{37}{3} * \frac{4}{3} = \frac{148}{9} = 16 \frac{4}{9} 
$
The answer from the fraction division is 16 and four-ninths, but because you need a whole number as an answer,
the answer is 16 pieces.
