Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the "Y" values from the ordered pairs   -1 - (-7)= 6

Subtract the "X" values from the ordered pairs   1-5 = -4

Remember slope is rise over run or y over x so the answer is -6/4 or -3/2 reduced

I always bring my negative to the top after I finish solving

Since you didn't provide the choices your answer is either going to be 3/-2  or -3/2 depending if your teacher makes you bring the negative to the top

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for slope is y1-y2/x1-x2

where

y1 is the first point's y coordinate

x1 is the first point's x coordinate

y2 is the second point's y coordinate

x2 is the second point's y coordinate

so now we can plug our points in

-1-(-7)/1-5

6/-4

simplify

-3/2

<span>arc length   =   circumference • [central angle (degrees) ÷ 360]

Solving this equation for circumference:
</span>
<span>circumference = arc length / (central angle / 360)

</span><span>circumference = 12 / (85/360)

A fruit bowl contains 2 bananas, 5 oranges, and 4 apples in the simplest form, what is the ratio of apples to bananas in the fru
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Ratio of apple to banana is 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find ratio of x type of one thing and y type of other thing we divide

x by y and ratio is written as

ratio = x:y

_________________________________

Number  of banana = 2

Number  of apples = 4

Ratio of apple to banana = Number  of apples :Number  of banana

Ratio of apple to banana = 4:2

since 4 is divisible by 2 , to get the ratio in simplest form

we divide both numerator and denominator by 2

Ratio of apple to banana = 4/2:2 /2 = 2:1

Thus,

Ratio of apple to banana is 2:1
