Slope = -4/5
to calculate the slope m use the gradient form
m = y2 -y1
————
x2 - x1
let (x1, y1) = (3,1) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 5)
m = 5 - 1 4
———- = ——-
-2 - 3 -5
= - 4/5
Anwser is 15 beacuse i got the anwser right now
This relates to ur previous question....there were 85 innings last question and 130 walks + hits which gave a whip score of 1.53......so if he wants to lower his whip (without changing his walks or hits) to 1.3....
130 / (85 + x) = 1.3....multiply both sides by (85 + x)
130 = 1.3(85 + x)
130 = 110.50 + 1.3x
130 - 110.50 = 1.3x
19.5 = 1.3x
19.5 / 1.3 = x
15 = x
he would have to pitch 15 more innings without any walks or hits to reach a goal of 1.3 whip score. This is not a reasonable goal.....have u ever seen a baseball game where a pitcher pitched 15 innings without any walks or hits ? And since a game consists of 9 innings....he would be 3 innings short of 2 games (thats if they dont go into overtime), and he would have to pitch a no hitter....and that is highly unlikely.
