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

Con has two credit cardsU and V. card U has a balance of 414.55 card V has a balance of $751.81 the minimum monthly payment on c

Stells [14]

Answer:

$11.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the greater amount on card V than card U by considering the minimum payment is shown below:

But before that first we have to compute it separately and then take a difference to reach a solution

On Credit card U

= Balance × given percentage

= $414.55 × 2.82%

= $11.69

On Credit card V

= Balance × given percentage

= $751.81 × 3.09%

= $23.23

So, the difference in amount is

= $23.23 - $11.69

= $11.54

A graphic designer created a logo on 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper. In order to place on a business card the logo needs to be 1 7/10 in

neonofarm [45]

K - scale factor
a = 8 1/2
b = 11
a₁ = 1 7/10
b₁ = 2 1/5

$k = \frac{a_1}{a}=\frac{b_1}b\\\\\\\frac{a_1}{a}=\dfrac{1 \frac{7}{10}}{8\frac12}=1 \frac{7}{10}:8\frac12=\frac{17}{10}:\frac{17}2=\frac{17}{10}\cdot\frac2{17}=\frac15\cdot\frac11=\frac15\\\\\\\frac{b_1}{b}=\dfrac{2 \frac{1}{5}}{11}=2\frac15:11=\frac{11}{5}\cdot\frac1{11}=\frac15\cdot\frac11=\frac15 \\\\\\\frac{a_1}{a}=\frac{b_1}b=\frac15\ \ \ \implies\ \ \ k=\frac15$
