Answer: -2/7
This value is a fraction.
----------------------------------
Work Shown:
The first two rows in the table produce these two points (x1,y1) = (-14,8) and (x2,y2) = (-7,6)
So, x1=-14, y1=8, x2=-7, and y2=6
Plug these four values into the slope formula and simplify
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (6 - 8)/(-7 - (-14))
m = (6 - 8)/(-7 + 14)
m = -2/7
Answer:
Its A.
Step-by-step explanation:
I just finsihed that question.
2.3 meters per minute. -7 is the start of Mr. Mole’s descend and the slope is -2.3. Since it is looking for a measurement, however, it is positive.
Answer:
Each goal gives 5 points and a penalty costs 7 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a penalty cost = x points
And a goal gives = y points
Ben makes 7 goals and 2 penalties ending the game with 21 points,
7y - 2x = 21 --------(1)
Alyssa makes 10 goals and 8 penalties ending the game with (-6) points,
10y - 8x = -6
5y - 4x = -3 --------(2)
Equation (1) multiplied by 2, then subtracted from equation (2),
(5y - 4x) - 2(7y - 2x) = -3 - 2(21)
5y - 4x - 14y + 4x = -3 - 42
-9y = -45
y = 5
From equation (1)
7(5) - 2x = 21
35 - 2x = 21
2x = 35 - 21
2x = 14
x = 7
Therefore, each goal gives 5 points and a penalty costs 7 points.
