The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)
All you have to do is multiply 18.3 x 5.1
18.3×5.1=93.33

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(2,-4)....x1= 2 and y1 = -4
(p,8).....x2 = p and y2 = 8
slope(m) = 1/2
now use the slope formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) and sub in what we know...
slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2- x1)
1 / 2 = (8 - (-4) / (p - 2)
1 / 2 = (8 + 4) / (p - 2)
1/2 = 12 / (p - 2) .....now multiply both sides by (p - 2)
1/2(p - 2) = 12
1/2p - 1 = 12
1/2p = 12 + 1
1/2p = 13
p = 13 / (1/2)
p = 13 * 2/1
p = 26
so the value of p is 26
You replace the y with f(x)
So it becomes f(x)=2x+1
