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 :)

What is 17/20 - 4/15

Zinaida [17]

Hello there, today you gave us the problem $\frac{17}{20}-\frac{4}{15}$ ,

Our first step is to give them common denominators, which is $\frac{51}{60}-\frac{16}{60}$ , solve it and we get $\frac{35}{60}$ as our answer, which can be simplified down to $\frac{7}{12}$

1. whats the midpoint between (7,3) and (-3,-1)

Elanso [62]

Answer:

(2, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

( $\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}$ , $\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}$ )

Here (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, - 1) , then

midpoint = ( $\frac{7-3}{2}$ , $\frac{3-1}{2}$ ) = ( $\frac{4}{2}$ , $\frac{2}{2}$ ) = (2, 1 )
