Answer: 0.185 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 5/12 by 2 1/4

First convert the improper fraction to a proper fraction, 2 1/4 = 9/4

5/12 ÷ 9/4

= 5/12 × 4/9

= 5/27 = 0.185

What is the slope of (8,3) and (-4,-6)?

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: The slope of the line formed by these two points is $\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope, we use the formula:

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

For the coordinates given:

$x_1=8\\y_1=3\\x_2=-4\\y_2=-6$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$Slope=\frac{(-6-3)}{(-4-8)}\\\\Slope=\frac{-9}{-12}\\\\Slope=\frac{3}{4}$

Hence, the slope of the line formed from these two coordinates is $\frac{3}{4}$

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor outside parentheses multiplies each term inside.

5/2(-8/5 +7/5)

= (5/2)(-8/5) +(5/2)(7/5)
