Easiest way:
Look at A and C. To get from A to C you need 6 steps to the right and 2 steps upwards.
Slope means (in layman's terms) that how many steps you take upwards when you take 1 step to the right.
In your case you take 2/6 steps, because it would take you 6 steps to the right to go 2 steps upwards.
A slope of 4 would mean that 1 step to the right is followed by 4 steps upwards. A slope of -5 means 1 step to the right, 5 steps downwards.
To get from A to E you need 9 steps to the right and 3 steps upwards. This means a 3/9 slope. The simplest form of it is 1/3.
1/3 slope means that for every 3 steps to the right you take 1 step upwards.
I hope this was understandable, this is how they taught me this in 5th grade more than a decade ago.
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use distributive property
5k - 6k -8 = 5x + 4
Combine like terms
-k - 8 = 5x + 4
add 8 to both sides
-k = 5x + 12
k = -5x- 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the perimeter of a square that has a side of (4x-3) is ; 4(4x-3) = 16x-12
X= 4/7 because it would be
4/35x=16/245
which would be 28x=16
simplified it would be 4/7
