Answer:
-7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that slope, m, is defined as the ratio rise to run: rise/run.
Note that if we start at x = -2 (an arbitrary choice), and move 6 units to the right, we end up at x = 4. This is the 'run.' Simultaneously, y starts at 1 and decreases to - 6, a change of -7.
Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise/run = -7/4
Answer:
2 bags of topsoil.
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached figure shows a flower bed.
One bag of topsoil covers 15 square meters.
We need to find how many bags of topsoil does Tom need to cover his flower bed.
The area of the flower bed is :
Let he has to cover x bags of topsoil. So,
x = Area of flower bed/Area of 1 bag of top soil
x = 30/15
x = 2
Hence, he will need 2 bags of topsoil to cover his flower bed.
I believe it's 7.5 but I could be wrong.
