Answer: -1/2

Step-by-step explanation: In algebra, we use the word <em>slope</em> to describe how steep a line is and slope can be found using the ratio rise/run between any 2 points that are on that line.

So for the line you see here, I have labeled 2 distinct points. One of the points crosses the x-axis and one of them crosses the y-axis. let's use the points A and B to find its slope.

To get from point A to point B, we must first go down 2 units so our rise is -2 and our run is 4 units. So our slope or <em>rise/run</em> is -2/4.

As a last step to these problems, make sure you have reduced your slope as much as possible and notice that -2/4 can be reduced to -1/2.

The variable that's used to represent slope is <em>m</em>.

So we can say that m = -1/2.

kkurt [141]

Answer: 12 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Take 175 and divide it by 15</em>
