The slope intercept is equal to the rise/run.
So lets say to get from one point to the other, you go down 2 units and go right 3 units.
Since you went down it is a -2. If you had gone up 2 units, then it would be a positive 2.
Since you went to the right, it is a positive 3. If you had gone left 3 units, then it would be -3.
-2/3
Answer:
9.25 or or 9 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
29/14
Step-by-step explanation:
9- -20 / 9 - -5 = 29/14 a parallel line will have the same slope so. 29/14
Answer:
7 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of width to length of the known rectangle is 4 : 14 and this simplifies to 2 : 7.
The smaller similar rectangle will have the same ratio of 2 :7.
This can also be looked at another way. The second value in the ratio is 7/2 of the first value in the ratio and the first value is 2/7 of the second value.
Example:
7/2 * 2 = 7
Example:
2/7 * 7 = 2
