Answer:
D. 7/8 pound
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2+1/4+1/8=7/8
7/8 pound of dried fruit will be put into the cookies in all.
Y = mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. If we were to consider a line of best fit that would represent all these points with a linear line, it'd cross the y-axis with a y-value of 10, so we can fill in y = mx + b to y = mx + 10. Now, it runs down from left to right, so we know the slope must be negative. The only equation that fits this description is y= -3/4x + 10
Answer:
Slope= -9
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, you need to find two points on the line, so it would be (-1,4) and (0,-5)
You can use the formula and substitute the coordinates
Y2-Y1/X2-X1
so...
-5-4/0-(-1)
-9/1=-9
or you can find the distance between both points and simplify if needed.
So you move 9 down, and one to the right
If you draw the line and mark -2 and 3 you find that they are 5 apart. By calculation, subtract the lowest from the highest: 3 - -2 = 3+2 = 5
