Answer:

<h3>The slope = - 7/4</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (9, 1) and (5, 8). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{8-1}{5-9}=\dfrac{7}{-4}=-\dfrac{7}{4}$

Answer:

$log_{2}( \frac{1}{8} ) = - 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of Log as a complimentary operation to powers.

$log_{2}( \frac{1}{8} )$

means you need to find the exponent of 2 that yields 1/8.

As this number is putting the base on the denominator, we know for a fact it must be some negative number, or

${2}^{ - x} = \frac{1}{ {2}^{x} }$

Then, by trial and error works just fine, going through the powers of 2.

${2}^{-2} = \frac{1}{ {2}^{2} } = \frac{1}{4} \\ {2}^{-3} = \frac{1}{{2}^{3} } = \frac{1}{8}$

And that is it.

Answer:

y = 25x - 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Every second (x) that passes by is 25 meters gained, and since she's 85 meters away from the safe distance still, the y intercept is -85.
