You subtract negative 4 and negative 12...think in a number line and you find negative 4 and then you decrease( which means you move to your left of the number line) and find negative 12 and then you count the spaces you took to get to negative 12
240,000 = 24 x 10,000 but 10,000 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10⁴, then:
240,000 = 24 x 10⁴
D is the only one which would make sense :)
Slope=rise/run or changeiny/changeinx or (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) or (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
so
pick any 2 points
(x,y)
(0,17) and (1,23)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
so
(23-17)/(1-0)=6/1=6
slope is 6
