The slope formula is y2-y1 divided by x2- x1 so -8-6=-14 and -1+3=2
-14/2 =-7
The common difference is the constant rate of change, or the slope of the function. We can construct the linear function if we know the slope and the vertical intercept. To find the y-intercept of the function, we can subtract the common difference from the first term of the sequence.
The answer is C...........
Answer:
The jar contains 132 grams of zinc
Step-by-step explanation:
zinc to copper = 3 : 19
New equivalent weights
zinc to copper = x : 836
Now, let us solve for x as follows

the jar contains 132 grams of zinc
To check if the answer is accurate, the answer gotten when the weight of zinc is divided by copper will be the same for both the old and new ratios:
old ratio: 3 ÷ 19 = 0.158
new ratio: 132 ÷ 836 = 0.158
