First let's find the slope
Slope formula: 
\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =slope
Given the two coordinates: 
(-4,-7) (3,2) 
 x1,y1  x2,y2

Plug these numbers into the formula
\frac{2-(-7)}{3-(-4)} = \frac{9}{7}
In this case the mistake that was made was that the student wrote the slope negative instead of positive
Final answer: 
<span>y-2=9/7(x-3)</span>

Amelia spent an hour an a half on a drawing .At the end she said that it was 75% done.How much time do she needs and how much ti
noname [10]
You can think of an hour and a half as 75% itself already because you have 3/4 or three thirty minute periods. So every 1/4 is a 30 minute period, and if you multiply 1/4 by 4 you get 4/4 which you ten can convert to 2 hours or 4, 30 minute time periods. (I’m sorry if I explained this in a very confusing manner). It will take Amelia 2 hours in total to finish her drawing.
