<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Slope Formula: \displaystyle m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Point (9, 5)

Point (21, 1)

<u>Step 2: Solve for slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                              \displaystyle m = \frac{1-5}{21-9}
  2. [Fraction] Subtract:                                                                                           \displaystyle m = \frac{-4}{12}
  3. [Fraction] Simplify:                                                                                            \displaystyle m = \frac{-1}{3}

What value of n solves the equation <br><br> 3n=1/81<br><br> N=___
Radda [10]

3n = 1/81; divide both sides by 3 to isolate n:


3n/3 = 1/81 divided by 3. Remember that when you divide, you use the reciprocal and multiply instead!!


n = 1/81(1/3) = 1/243. Now plug 1/243 back in for n, and 3/243 is equivalent to 1/81
