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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

area of the rectangle = l×b = 40m

let the breadth be 10m

l = ?

l × 10 = 40

l = 40/10

l = 4m

so the length of the 4 sides = 10m, 10m, 4m, and 4m

since opposite sides of a rectangle are equal

Bernice sells 135 sea shells by the sea shore every day. She shells each sea shel for 3 dollars. For how many days does Bernice
horrorfan [7]

First we want to calculate exactly how much money Bernice sells on a daily basis, so we can determine how many days it'll take to earn 2,430 dollars. We can do this by multiplying the amount of shells she sells every day by the amount she sells them for. So 135 sea shells multiplied by 3 dollars.

<u>135 * 3</u>

This comes up to 405 dollars every day, quite a significant amount considering she's selling shells. Now, divide 2,430 dollars by 405 dollars. This will give us the final result.

<u>2,430 / 405</u>

It will take Bernice exactly 6 days to earn 2,430 dollars.

How do we find P(rolling 2 or 5) with one number cube?
Allisa [31]
<span>The sample space of the rolling the cube is 6.
 The probability of rolling 2 in a cube is 1. So p(2) is 1/6
Similarly the probability of rolling 5 in cube is 1.
 So, p(5) = 1/6
To find p (2 or 5) which is p(2) + p(5)
p(2) + p(5) = 1/6 + 1/6 which is 2/6.
2/6 can be reduced to 1/3.
  so right answer is 1/3</span>
