You can see that both points sit on the x axis, which means that the line passing trough them is actually the x axis, which is in particular a horizontal line.

Every horizontal line has slope 0, so this is the case for this line.

If you didn't realize this and want to use the "rise over run" formula anyway, you'd obviously come to the same result:

m = \dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \dfrac{0-0}{-4-2} = \dfrac{0}{-6} = 0

since both points have a y- coordinate of zero, this is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis

hence slope = 0

6. A hospital needs a supply of an expensive medicine. Company A has the most
Anton [14]

We are required to find the total milligrams if medicine the hospital can get from the three companies.

The total quantity of medicine the hospital can get from the three companies is 2.75 milligrams

There are there companies:

Company A

Company B

Company C

Company A = 1.3 milligrams

Company A is 0.9 milligrams more than Company C's

A = 0.9 + C

1.3 = 0.9 + C

1.3 - 0.9 = C

0.4 = C

C = 0.4 milligrams

Company A is also twice the difference between the weight of

Company B's supply and Company C's

A = 2(B - C)

1.3 = 2(B - 0.4)

1.3 = 2B - 0.8

1.3 + 0.8 = 2B

2.1 = 2B

Divide both sides by 2

B = 2.1/2

B = 1.05 milligrams

Therefore,

A + B + C

= 1.3 + 1.05 + 0.4

= 2.75 milligrams
