Answer:

-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The slope formula is in the form y2-y1/x2-x1

2. Use one set of points as (x1, y1), and the other as (x2, y2).

3. Plug the points into the corresponding equation variables

4. Solve: (-4 - 4)/(1 -(-5)) = -8/6

-8/2 = -4, 6/2 = 3

-8/6 = -4/3

Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line. Let (-4,1) be (x1,y1) and (4,-5) be (x2,y2).

So, the slope of the line that goes through the points (-4,1) and (4,-5) is .

What value of x will make this expression equal to 28.1? A) x=0 is the only value that will make the expression equal to 28.1 B)

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Any value except -3.44 will make the equation equal to 28.1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told to multiply the quotient of the fraction by 28.1 to make 28.1. So, it is obvious that the fraction has to simplified to a one. This is possible with any number as whatever the value of x, the numerator and denominator will be equal. But, in the case of -3.44, it will make 5e fraction 0/0, which is undefined and never equal to 1.
