To find the slope, subtract the y values over the x values.

3 - - 5 / 2 - - 2 > Remember subtracting a negative is the sam as adding positives, so this can be rewritten as 3 + 5 / 2 + 2 .

3 + 5 / 2 + 2 > 8 / 4 > 2.

This means the slope between the two points is 2!

Lisa Purchased almonds for $3.50 per pound. She spent a total of $24.50. how many pounds of almond did she purchase?

Margaret [11]

Answer:

7 pounds of almond

Step-by-step explanation:

It is $3.50 per pound.

If she spent a total of $24.50, just divide 24.50 by 3.50

$\frac{24.50}{3.50}$ = 7

We can verify this by multiplying 3.50 by 7 which gives us 24.50

Answer:

$x=-\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10},\:x=-\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$w=-5\left(x-8\right)\left(x+4\right)\\\mathrm{Expand\:}-5\left(x-8\right)\left(x+4\right):\quad -5x^2+20x+160\\w=-5x^2+20x+160\\Switch\:sides\\-5x^2+20x+160=w\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}w\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\-5x^2+20x+160-w=w-w\\Simplify\\-5x^2+20x+160-w=0\\Solve\:with\:the\:quadratic\:formula\\\mathrm{Quadratic\:Equation\:Formula:}\\\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=-5,\:b=20,\:c=160-w:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-20\pm \sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}\\x=\frac{-20+\sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}:\quad -\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}\\x=\frac{-20-\sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}:\quad -\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}\\The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are\\x=-\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10},\:x=-\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}$
