So what exactly is going on here?
So let’s imagine this on a number line…so we know that the fish starts at -17 1/3 on the number line but he dives (that means go lower in our number line) 6 1/2 feet downward so let’s set up an equation:
-17 1/3 - 6 1/2
Now, let’s subtract the two integers by finding the least common denominator of 2 and 3 so it can be easier to solve in this case it’s 6…then let’s set up our new equation:
-17 2/6 - 6 3/6
We know it’s a negative number since we are subtracting a negative number and our final answer is -23 5/6

Answer: -1/2
Explanation: -4y > 2x + 4; isolate the y by dividing both sides by -4 and get:
y = -2/4x + 4; simplify
y = -1/2x + 4
In y = mx + b; m is the slope
In this case, -1/2 is the slope
