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

Mathematics

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

A sandwich store charges a delivery fee to bring lunch to an office.

Delivery cost - D

Meatball sandwich cost  - M

One office pays $40.50 for 5 meatball sandwiches.

40.50 = 5M + D

Another office pays $66.50 for 9 meat ball sandwiches

66.50 = 9M + D

A. How much does each meatball sandwich add to the cost of delivery?

D = 40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M

40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M

9M - 5M = 66.50 - 40.50

4M = 26.00

M = 6.50

B. What is the delivery fee

D = 40.50 - 5M = 40.50 - 5(6.50) = 40.50 - 32.50 = 8.00

Check

66.50 = 9M + D = 9(6.50) + 8 = 58.50 + 8.00 = 66.50

Answer:

76.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the proportion

\frac{120}{100} → Percent is out of 100

\frac{120}{100} = \frac{n}{64} ( cross-  multiply )

100n = 7680 ( divide both sides by 100 )

n = 76.8
