Answer:

5/-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is rise/run.

If you graph this, the two points make a line that slopes downwards. The higher point is in the negative axis, which means that the run will be negative.

you rise up 15 points from the first point (1,-6) to get to the same level as the second point. (-8,9). This is your rise.

You go over to the other point, this is your run. The run is -9.

15/-9

we can simplify  this fraction.

5/-3 is your final answer.

Personal Statement
leonid [27]

Well, as it says, your first statement needs to explain what interests you about the program.

If you feel you need multiple paragraphs, let the first be an introduction, around 4 or 5 sentences. Include, possibly what pushed you to apply for this program, what you're looking forward to, and a reason for them to hire you. You can add a thesis statement of sorts if that helps (a short statement, usually one sentence, that summarizes the main point or claim of a paper). The first paragraph can be short, it doesn't need to be too in-depth. You can talk more about that later in your statement.

The body paragraphs must include your goals and extracurricular interests (what courses would you like to take and why?).

As it states, you must list your GPA, what interests you about the Major and/or Minor/Workshop courses, and what you can contribute (you can build off of what you said in your first paragraph here).

It is very important to share additional details you think are important, such as accomplishments you are proud of, for example.

A conclusion would be nice, a short and sweet wrap-up of your overall statement (not too long).

Remember, the name of the game is to sound confident and prove to them that you are in fact a good fit for the program! Good luck! Stay focused ^^

The area of a rectangle is<br> 3/8 in and the length is 5/8 What is the width?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The width W is :

W=\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let A be the area of the rectangle </em>

<em>Let L be the length of the rectangle</em>

<em>Let W be the width of the rectangle </em>

______

Formula:

A = L × W

__________

\begin{aligned}A &=L \times W \\\Rightarrow W &=\frac{A}{L} \\\Rightarrow W &=\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{\frac{5}{8}} \\&=\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{8}{5} \\&=\frac{3 \times 8}{8 \times 5} \\&=\frac{3}{5}\end{aligned}

In his freshman year, Mario earned a C in algebra, a B in English, an A in science, and a C- in geography. As a sophomore, he ea
Leya [2.2K]

from what I know

A=4

B=3

C=2

and a plus adds 0.33 and a minus minuses 0.33

question wants us to find yearly average or average per 1 year

since these grades span over 2 years, we must divide the total average by 2

averagefresh=sum of fresh grades/4 grades per year

averagesoph=sum of soph grades/4 grades per year

yearlyaverage=(averagefresh+averagesoph)/2


freshman:

(C)+(B)+(A)+(C-)=2+3+4+(2-0.33)=10.67


sophomore:

(B+)+(A-)+(C+)+(B-)=(3+0.33)+(4-0.33)+(2+0.33)+(3-0.33)=12


averagefresh=10.67/4=2.6675

averagesoph=12/4=3

yearlyaverage=(2.6675+3)/2=2.83375

so it's about a B^{-} average
