Answer:

-6/5 or -1 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the slope with any 2 points of a line is rise/run, or

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

In this case, y2 is -5, y1 is 1, x1 is -3, and x2 is 2.

So, the slope is:

(-5-1)/(2-(-3))

-6/5 which, as a mixed number, is -1 1/5.

You can also graph out the points on a coordinate plane, draw the line between the points, and count the rise/run, but that might take a minute or two, which is not the best if you have a timed test.

Answer:

- 6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope

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

= ( -5-1)/(2- -3)

= (-5-1)/(2+3)

- 6/5

Sedaia [141]

Check the picture below.

let's recall that 2π is a full go-around or namely a revolution

$\bf \cfrac{191}{45}\implies \cfrac{45+45+45+45+11}{45}\implies \cfrac{45}{45}+\cfrac{45}{45}+\cfrac{45}{45}+\cfrac{45}{45}+\cfrac{11}{45} \\\\\\ 1+1+1+1+\cfrac{11}{45}\implies \stackrel{\textit{and this more}}{\underset{\textit{2 go-around}}{\underset{\uparrow }{2+2}+\stackrel{\downarrow }{\cfrac{11}{45}}}}$

On a given planet, the weight of an object varies directly with the mass of the object. Suppose that an object whose mass is 9 k

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

6 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is weight of an object directly varies with the mass of the object .

Let the constant of proportionality be k

So,

Weight = K×(mass of the object)

For an object , weight = 45 N

mass = 9 kg

So , 45 = K×9

K = 5.

Now, for the other object ,

Weight = 30 N. K = 5 (as obtained above)

So, 30 = 5×(mass of the object)

mass of the object = 6 kg.
