Answer:

C. -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We are given the points (-2,18) and (4,3).

m=\frac{3-18}{4-(-2)}= \frac{-15}{6} =-\frac{15}{6}= -\frac{5}{2}

The options are given in decimals.

-5/2=-2.5

Option C is the correct answer.

Answer:

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope can be found by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (3-18)/(4- -2)

   = -15/(4+2)

    =-15/6

    = -5/2

     -2.5

2x+4y=-16

-2(-2x+2y=-2)

2x+4y=-16

4x-4y=4

6x=-12

x=-2

2x+4y=-16

2(-2)+4y=-16

-4+4y=-16

Solve for e.<br> 0.75(8 + e) = 2 - 1.25e
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

e = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve for e in the following equation,

.75(8 + e) = 2 - 1.25e

We need to distribute and use the communicative property to find <em>e</em>.

6 + .75e = 2 - 1.25e

-2 to both sides

4 + .75e = -1.25e

-.75 to both sides

4 = -2e

-2 to both sides

e = -2

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>e is -2.</em>

<em />

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

Show all work. What are the zeros of the function?<br> f(x) = 2x^2 − 8x − 10
vivado [14]
(2x² - 8x - 10) ÷ 2 = 0
x² - 4x - 5 = 0
x² + x - 5x - 5 = 0
x(x+1) - 5(x+1) = 0
(x+1)(x-5) = 0
x+1 = 0 or x-5 = 0
x = -1 or x= 5
