The slope of the line passes through the points (-5,6) and (-3,2) is 2.
<h3>What is a slope?</h3>
Slope or the gradient is the number or the ratio which determines the direction or the steepness of the line. The slope is also defined as the ratio of the rise to the run.
Given that the line that passes through the points (-5,6) and (-3,2).
The slope of the line is calculated by the formula,
Slope = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
Slope = ( 6 - 2) / ( -3 + 5)
Slope = 4 / 2
Slope = 2
Therefore, the slope of the line passes through the points (-5,6) and (-3,2) is 2.

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.
The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle is given as:
Area = (1/2) × base × height
Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²
Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²
Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16
Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.
b) For the scaled copy:
Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²
base × height = 144
Since the base and height are equal
base² = 144
base = 12, also height = 12
Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A
Therefore the scale factor used is 4
221. 119 is 35% of 340. 340-119=221

1 inch= 12 miles
Multiply 6 1/2 inches by total number of miles per 1 inch (12).
= 6 1/2 * 12
convert to improper fraction
= 13/2 * 12
multiply numerators
= (13*12)/2
multiply in parentheses
= 156/2
divide
= 78 miles
ANSWER: (A) 78 miles

Answer: If the level of confidence is increased without changing the sample size then<em> </em><u><em>The margin of error will decrease because the critical value will decrease. The decreased margin of error will cause the confidence interval to be narrower.</em></u>
where;
<em>Margin of error = Critical value × Standard deviation</em>
<em>Here, it can be duly noted that Margin of error has a positive relation with critical value, i.e </em><u><em>The margin of error will decrease because the critical value will decrease.</em></u>
<u><em>whereas;</em></u>
The confidence interval is <em>the value ± the margin of error.</em>
<em>Therefore, </em><u><em>the decreased margin of error will cause the confidence interval to be narrower.</em></u>
