Answer:

-0.85 > -0.98

-0.85 is greater than -0.98

Step-by-step explanation:

when comparing two number . . . you usually look first at the ones places, then if they are equal, then you look at the tens place, then then farther back untill one number is larger than the other.

However with negive numbers, you are looking to see the smaller number (closer to zero)

so -0.85 is (smaller in a sense) but is less negetive

-0.98 is farther from zero

hope this helped. please mark me brainliest!

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

$x_{1}=-7 \ ; \ y_{1}=-4\\\\x_{2}=-11 \ ; \ y_{2} = -2\\\\\\Slope=\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-2-[-4]}{-11-[-7]}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-2+4}{-11+7}\\\\\\=\dfrac{2}{-4}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-1}{2}$

Step #1: Find the slope.

Slope is "rise over run" and see the attached graph to see

the rise = 1

the run = 4

and this gives a slope of 1/4.

Step 2: Find the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is where this graph hits the vertical axis. That happens at a height of 20, so your y-intercept is (0,20) and your b-value for the slope-intercept form is 20.

Step 3: Put it all together:

y = mx + b becomes

$y = \frac{1}{4} x + 20$
