Easy peasy
slope=(change in rise)/(change in run)
aka
slope between points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) since y is rise/up and x is run/leftright

points

(-7,-9) and (-5,-8)
x1=-7
y1=-9
x2=-5
y2=-8
remember minusing a negative means addin a positive
slope=(-8-(-9))/(-5-(-7))=
(-8+9)/(-5+7)=1/2

slope=1/2

positive slopes go from bottom left to top right

since it is less than 1
it is more horizonal than vertical

Noah drew 22 hearts and 76 circles. What is the ratio of circles to all the shapes?
dimulka [17.4K]
You would make a fraction with circles on the top which would be 76. Then you would add 22 to 76 and get 97 because that is the number of all of the shapes. That would mean your fraction would be 76/97. If u want to simplify that is up to you.
