Answer:

$\huge\boxed{slope=-\dfrac{3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (2, 3) and (-4, 12).

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{12-3}{-4-2}=\dfrac{9}{-6}=-\dfrac{9:3}{6:3}=-\dfrac{3}{2}$

if a person earns $2600 in 4 weeks, how much can the person earn in 20 weeks at the same rate of pay?

AlladinOne [14]

Howdy!

To do this we first have to find the unit rate of 2,600.

2,600/4=650 each week. Then, we just multiply 650x20, with 20 being the number of weeks.

650x20=13,000<---Answer

Maymona book club is ordering new novels, She knows that the total cost of 6 books is $90, and 10 books cost $150. Write an equa

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Y=15x

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Okay so let's approach this problem!</h2><h2 />

X is books and Y is total cost

Let's find the slope!

Y2-Y1/ X2-X1

Just replace

$\frac{150 - 90}{10 - 6}$

$\frac{60}{4} = 15$

The slope is 15

$y = 15x + b$

Now replace x and y with coordinates and solve

$150 = 15(10) + b \\ 150 = 150 + b \\ - 150 \\ 0 = b$

The final equation:

y = 15x

That's it! If you have any questions please ask! Brainliest Appreciated.
