Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 points, we can use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1) /(x2-x1)

= ( 8-1)/( -7 - -6)

= ( 8-1) / ( -7+6)

= 7/ -1

= -7

Hello!

Slope formula:

y2-y1/x2-x1

y2: 8

y1: 1

x2: -7

x1: -6

Plug given values into the equation:

8-1/-7 - (-6)

Subtract

7/-1

Divide

-7

The slope is -7

I am doing with Question Number 2

Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'.

According to the question, the product of two numbers is 14.

$x \times y=14$

So, xy=14 (Equation 1)

Now, one of the numbers is 3 ½ times the other.

So, $x = 3\frac{1}{2}\times y$

$x=\frac{7}{2}y$ (Equation 2)

Substituting the value of 'x' from equation 2 in equation 1, we get

$\frac{7}{2}y \times y = 14$

$\frac{7}{2}y^{2} = 14$

$y^{2} = 4$

So, y= 2 and -2

So, $x=\frac{14}{2}$ and $x=\frac{14}{-2}$

x=7 and -7

Numbers are 2,7 and -2,-7.

Sum of numbers 2 and 7 = 9

Sum of numbers -2 and -7 = -9.

Can someone please help answer this question.

It would be d because youing the point slope equation which is (y - y1) = m (x- x1) when distributing the point and the slope into the equation asl well as sinplifying youll get D. Y1 is the value of the y in the ordered pair and x1 is the x value of the ordered pair.
