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.

List the next four multiples of fraction 7/12
Sidana [21]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

\frac{14}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*2\\\\\\\frac{21}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*3\\\\\\\\\frac{28}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*4\\\\\\\\\frac{35}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*5

<h2>Why?</h2>

A multiple of a number is the repeated sum of itself, for example:

Multiple of the number 1 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and so...

Multiple of the number 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and so...

From the example we have:

Multiple of the number 3 are: Itself, (3+3), (3+3+3), (3+3+3+3), (3+3+3+3+3) and so...

So,

Multiple of \frac{7}{12} are:

\frac{14}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*2=\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}\\\\\\\frac{21}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*3=\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}\\\\\\\\\frac{28}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*4=\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}\\\\\\\\\frac{35}{12}=\frac{7}{12}*5=\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}

Have a nice day!

Hoochie [10]
The mixture is 1 cup of vinegar to 1 gallon of water.
Since 1 gallon is 16 cups, it could also be
1 cup of vinegar to 16 cups of water.
If we had 80 fluid ounces of water, we'd have to change the water to 5 fluid ounces to keep the mixture the same. (It's still 1 part vinegar, 16 parts water)
