Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of a slope:

If
m > 0, then a line is rising
m < 0, then a line is falling
m = 0, then a line is horizontal
m is undefined, then a line is vertical
<h2>a.</h2>
(2, 1) and (4, 5)

<h2>b.</h2>
(-1, 0) and (3, -5)

<h2>c.</h2>
(2, 1) and (-3, 1)

<h2>d.</h2>
(-1, 2) and (-1, -5)


this formula is used to determine gpm (gallons per minute) of flow with a known hose diameter (d) and nozzle pressure (np). The constant (29.7) is consistent when figuring flow with in gallons with a know pressure expressed in psi (pounds per square inch).
Scenario example: a firefighter is using a handline to fight fire with an 1 3/4 inch line with a nozzle pressure of 100 psi. How much water is the firefighter flowing when fighting fire?
It should be 0.4 cause 0.4 is the same as 0.40
