The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)
Answer

Explanation
The absolute value of a negative number turns into a positive
Answer:
80 is less than or equal to 22+7x
8 DVDs
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't have the inequality signs sorry if you don't know its the symbol thats opening to the left with a line underneath
80 is less than or equal to 22+7x
subtract 22
58 is less than or equal to 7x
divide and flip the sign to the right
x is greater than or equal to 8.29
so he can buy 8 DVDs in total
After the expression is simplified as much as possible, x is raised to the exponent 2
