Answer:

The slope is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To find the slope, you divide the differences of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points.

2) y1 - y2 ÷ x1 - x2

3) 6 -10 ÷ (-1) - 5

4) (-4) ÷ (-6)

5) -4/-6 You can reduce this by dividing by two

6) -2/-3 The negatives cancel each other out, making it a positive slope

7) ∴ the slope is 2/3

Hi there
The formula is
A=pe^rt
A future value?
P present value 1400
R interest rate 0.055
T time 6 years
E constant
So
A=1,400×e^(0.055×6)
A=1,947.36

Hope it helps

What is the difference between the smallest six digit number and the greatest four digit number

drek231 [11]

The smallest (whole number ) 6 digit number is 1,000,000
The greatest (whole number 4 digit number is 9,999
The difference between them means to subtract the four digit number from the 6 digit number.
The difference is 990,001

I would not consider 000001 to be a 6 digit number (in case this is supposed to be a trick question.)
