Answer:

c = 7p

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 person buys the platter, the bill is c = 1 × $7.

If 2 people buy the platter, the bill is c = 2 × $7.

If 3 people buy the platter, the bill is c = 3 × $7.

(Do you see the pattern yet?)

If "p" people buy the platter, the bill is c = p × $7.

We ususally say "c is in dollars" and drop the "$" sign from the equation. When p is multiplied by 7, we conventionally write it as 7p.

... c = 7p

Find the slope of the line passing through the pairs of points and describe the line as rising, falling, horizontal or vertical.
Anna [14]

Answer:

a.\ m=2,\ \text{the line is rising}\\\\b.\ m=-\dfrac{5}{4},\ \text{the line is falling}\\\\c.\ m=0,\ \text{the line is horizontal}\\\\d.\ m\ is\ unde fined,\ \text{the line is vertical}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

If

m > 0, then a line is rising

m < 0, then a line is falling

m = 0, then a line is horizontal

m is undefined, then a line is vertical

<h2>a.</h2>

(2, 1) and (4, 5)

m=\dfrac{5-1}{4-2}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2>0\to\text{rising}

<h2>b.</h2>

(-1, 0) and (3, -5)

m=\dfrac{-5-0}{3-(-1)}=\dfrac{-5}{4}=-\dfrac{5}{4}

<h2>c.</h2>

(2, 1) and (-3, 1)

m=\dfrac{1-1}{-3-2}=\dfrac{0}{-5}=0\to\text{horizontal}

<h2>d.</h2>

(-1, 2) and (-1, -5)

m=\dfrac{-5-2}{-1-(-1))}=\dfrac{-7}{0}\ \text{UNDEFINED}\to\text{vertical}
