Use the slope formula
y2-y1
m=---------
x2-x1
(rise-->y over run-->x)
so it would be
9-5
m=-------
1-10
and that would simplify to
4
----
-9
and that would be your slope.
Hope that helped :-)

A) Amanda's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every week.</span>
common difference is 10.
1st week 0 + 10 = 10
2nd week 10 + 10 = 20
3rd week 20 + 10 = 30
4th week 30 + 10 = 40
Billy's method is exponential:
5(2)^x
1st week 5(2⁰) = 5(1) = 5
2nd week 5(2¹) = 5(2) = 10
3rd week 5(2²) = 5(4) = 20
4th week 5(2³) = 5(8) = 40
Answer: Picking the first option and constantly adding on and on you will eventually make way more than what the second option proposes, therefore picking the first option is the obvious choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well let’s see it starts off slow for instance 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and so on adding that on for a month will eventually leave you with more.
Answer:
7. a) slope = 5
7. b) slope = 1/2
8. slope = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = rise/run
rise is the vertical change, run is the horizontal change
7. a)
Pick any two points on your line. (0,0) and (1,5) are easy to work with.
The vertical change between the two points is 5
The horizontal change between those points is 1
so slope = 5/1 = 5
7. b)
Again, you can use (0,0) as one of your points. The point (2,4) is good as the second.
slope = 4/2 = 1/2
8. We don't have a graph, but we are given two points to work with, (1,4) and (5,8). Use the formula given...
m = slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
= (8 - 4) / (5 - 1)
= 4/4
= 1
I hope that helped!
Answer:
y = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are in proportion, that is
= 
, substitute values
= 
( cross- multiply )
14y = 252 ( divide both sides by 14 )
y = 18
