Mathematics

Answer:

The slope is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roof is decreasing in height as it goes forward, I know that the slope must be negative. The equation to find the slope is rise/run. The vertical change, or the rise, is -6 feet, so that value goes on top of the fraction. The horizontal value, or the run, is 3 feet so that goes on the bottom of the fraction.

Now our fraction is \frac{-6}{3}

If you simplify that fraction, you'll get -2.

What is this?<br> q+2/5 = 2q - 11/ 7<br> Please help.
just olya [345]
<span>We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
<span>q+2/5=2q-11/7

Simplifying:
<span>q + 0.4=2q-11/7

Simplifying:
<span>q + 0.4=2q-1.57142857143

We move all terms containing q to the left and all other terms to the right.
<span>+1q-2q=-1.57142857143-0.4

We simplify left and right side of the equation.
<span>-1q=-1.97142857143

We divide both sides of the equation by -1 to get q.
<span>q=1.97142857143</span></span></span></span></span></span></span>
