What is the slope of (-7,5) and (5,-1)

Mathematics

svlad2 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1)

Use the graph

You must go from point (-7, 5) to point (5, -1) by using only vertical and horizontal paths.

Start at point (-7, 5).

Go down 6 units. That means a rise of -6.

Now go right 12 units to point (5, 1)

That is a run of 12 units.

slope = rise/run = -6/12 = -1/2

Method 2)

Use the slope formula

slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = [5 - (1)]/(-7 - 5) = (5 + 1)/(-12) = 6/(-12) = -1/2

Carol is ordering t-shirts for her club and there are two different patterns to choose from. The first shirt is green and blue s
noname [10]

Answer:

14 Striped and 10 Flowered

Step-by-step explanation:

This can best be determined using a set of linear equations that are solved simultaneously.

This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations. It may be solved by substitution in that one of the variable is made the subject of the equation and the result is substituted into the second equation

Given that the green and blue striped shirt is $15 and the white with purple flowers is $13. She needs to order 24 shirts and has a total of $340 to spend, let the number of striped shirts be g and that of flowered be h then,

g + h = 24 and

15g + 13h = 340

g = 24 - h

15(24 - h) + 13h = 340

360 - 15h + 13h = 340

2h = 20

h = 10

g = 24 - h

g = 24 - 10

= 14
