Ypu would subtract Y from the other points Y

Then you would subtract X from the ither points X.

Then you would put the Y value over the X

Then simiplify

Round to whichever place is needed
From question,
lacy learned 34 recipes in 17 weeks,
so in 1 week she learns = 34/17 =2 recipes,
hence she learns 40 recipes in
= 40*2
=80 recipes.
Answer:
The answer to your question is x² + 5/2x - 3/2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Quadratic equation x² + 2.5x - 1.5 = 0
Process
1.- Convert the decimals into fractions
2.5 = 25/10 = 5/2
1.5 = 15/10 = 3/2
2.- Substitution
x² + 5/2x - 3/2 = 0
3.- Conclusion
I rewrite the equation, now it is expressed in fractions. It could be solve by factoring.
