Slope is calculated by finding the ratio of the "vertical change" to the "horizontal change" between (any) two distinct points on a line. Sometimes the ratio is expressed as a quotient ("rise over run"), giving the same number for every two distinct points on the same line. A line that is decreasing has a negative "rise". The line may be practical - as set by a road surveyor, or in a diagram that models a road or a roof either as a description or as a plan.

On awall of dimension10.5m long and 8.5 m wide, a square shaped wall posture is stuck at the centre whose one side measures2.5m.
tangare [24]

Answer:

₹996

Step-by-step explanation:

Area painted = area of wall - area of wall posture

Area of a rectangle = length x breadth

= 10.5m x 8.5m = 89.25m^2

Area of a square

length x length

2.5m x 2.5m = 6.25m^2

Area painted =  89.25m^2 -  6.25m^2 = 83m^2

Total cost of area painted = 83m^2 x 12 = 996

It takes an airplane 5/12 of a minute to fly 3/4 of a mile. What is the airplanes speed per minute?
Nikitich [7]
To make this a little easier, you would want to turn 3/4 into 9/12, to match 5/12's denominator.

You would then just add 7/1 to both fractions

(5/12+7/1=12/12 or 1 minutes)
(9/12+7/1=16/12=1 1/3)

So your answer would be 1.333... miles per minute
