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

I didn't understand this to be honest I thought I had to find what jm and lm were together and then subtract from the whole tota
prisoha [69]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

It gives you the expression for JM and LM, and it asks for JL. Therefore, if you take away LM from JM, you are left with JL. You must subtract 2x-6 from 5x-8.

∴5x-8-(2x-6)

Do not forget to distribute the negative since you are subtracting, so instead of subtracting 6 from 8, you will be adding 6 to 8 because two negatives make a positive.
