WHAT IS THE SLOPE PLEASE??
2 answers:
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.

General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Calculus</u>
Discontinuities
- Removable (Hole)
- Jump
- Infinite (Asymptote)
Integration
- Integrals
- Definite Integrals
- Integration Constant C
- Improper Integrals
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define our answer choices:
A)
B)
C)
D) None of these
We can see that we would have a infinite discontinuity if x = 2/3, as it would make the denominator 0 and we cannot divide by 0. Therefore, any interval that includes the value 2/3 would have to be rewritten and evaluated as an improper integral.
Of all the answer choices, we can see that A's bounds of integration (interval) includes x = 2/3.
∴ our answer is A.
