First point = (x1, y1) = (-1, 8)

Second point = (x2, y2) = (5, -4)

m = slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) .... is the slope formula

m = (-4 - 8)/(5 - (-1)) .... plug in the given values

m = (-4 - 8)/(5 + 1)

m = -12/6

<h3>m = -2</h3><h3>The slope is -2</h3><h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the slope is y2-y1/ x2-x1
so ( -1 ,8 ) (5, -4) 8- ( -4) ÷ 5- ( -4 ) = 2

PLEASE ANSWER FAST!! Find the 29th term of this sequence:-121,-108,-95,-82...

Julli [10]

Answer:

The 29th term is

Step-by-step explanation:

The above sequence is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

U(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where n is the number of terms

a is the first term

d is the common difference

From the question

a = - 121

d = -108 -- 121 = - 108 + 121 = 13

Since we are finding the 29th term

n = 29

The 29th term of the sequence is

U(29) = - 121 + ( 29 - 1) 13

= -121 + 28(13)

= -121 + 364

The final answer is

Hope this helps you

At Friday's football game, 1,294 tickets were sold for a total amount of $8,816.00. If each student ticket costs $5.00, and each

NeTakaya

Answer:

512 student tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be number of student tickets and y be number of adult tickets.

We have been given that at Friday's football game 1,294 tickets were sold. We can represent this information as:

$x+y=1294...(1)$

We are also told that each student ticket costs $5.00, and each adult ticket costs $8.00 and 1,294 tickets were sold for a total amount of $8,816. We can represent this information as:

$5x+8y=8,816...(2)$

From equation (1) we will get,

$y=1294-x$

Substituting this value in equation (2) we will get,

$5x+8(1294-x)=8,816$

$5x+10352-8x=8,816$

$-3x+10352=8,816$

$-3x=8,816-10352$

$-3x=-1536$

$x=\frac{-1536}{-3}$

$x=512$

Therefore, 512 student tickets were purchased at Fridays football game.
