We are given with two points and is asked for the slope of the line formed by the two points. The formula of the slope is equal to change in y over change in x. In this case, the slope is (-5+3)/(3-1) equal to -2/2 equal to -1. The line hence is going downward and has a formula of y = -x

The slope: m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

(1;-3)\to x_1=1;\ y_1=-3\\(3;-5)\to x_2=3;\ y_2=-5\\\\subtitute:\\\\m=\dfrac{-5-(-3)}{3-1}=\dfrac{-5+3}{2}=\dfrac{-2}{2}=-1


Answer: m = -1

Between 4,632 and 20,000 is what number?*
yarga [219]
To find the mid-way number we do this:

find the difference between the highest number and the lowest given number.
Divide the difference by 2
Add that number to the lowest number or subtract that number from the highest number.

20,000 - 4,632 = 15,362
\frac{15,368}{2} = 7,684

4,632 + 7,684 = 12,316
or                                               (we get the same number)
20,000 - 7,684 = 12, 316 

12,316 is between 4,632 and 20,000

What’s the slope and y - intercept of this equation ?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Slope = -\frac{7}{3}

Y-intercept = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-> See attached

-> This equation is in slope-intercept form.

         [] When we use y = mx + b, the m is the slope and the b is our y-intercept.

Have a nice day!

     I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly.

When solving an equation, Tina gets to the last of line of her work and is left with "7=7." What does this mean?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

B , there are infinite solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you end an equation with a true statement, such as 0 = 0, then any value of the variable(s) you are solving for will satisfy the equation. This means that there are infinite solutions.
