The slope is -4. This is because of slope intercept form, y=mxtb. M= the slope so the slope in this case is -4
In order to answer the question we need a picture of some kind
That is basically splitting the sentence so that it’s easier for you to solve it. It’s basically the same thing
Let Lynette has originally candies in hand = x
She gave half to her son means x/2 given to son.
2 candies gave to daughter and left with 4.
x - x/2 - 2 = 4
adding 2 both sides
x - x/2 - 2 + 2 = 4 + 2
x - x/2 = 6
x /2 = 6
x = 12
Means she have 12 candies originally : Answer
Hope it will help :)
Ben mixed up the first two #s. he needs to make the 6 a 5 and 5 a 6
