Step-by-step explanation: In algebra, we use the word <em>slope</em> to describe how steep a line is and slope can be found using the ratio <em>rise/run </em>between any two points that are on that line.
The ratio <em>rise/run</em> is the equal to the rate of change
or the <em>change in y/change in x</em>.
In algebra, the rate of change or the <em>change in y/change in x</em> or
the <em>rise/run</em> is also called the slope of a line.
Answer:
Yes, 4 squared is a rational number.
Step-by-step explanation:
4 squared = 4 x 4 = 16
You haven't told us whether the rectangular prism is the size of a pack of gum or more like the size of a cruise ship.
Whatever size it is, here's the number of centimeter squares you need to cover the whole outside of it:
(2 x length x width) + (2 x length x height) + (2 x width x height)
with all measurements made in centimeters.
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
Pick one of the coordinates, I’ll use (-3,-4) as the example.
Coordinates are just numbers plugged in for (x,y).
This means -3 would be your x and -4 would be your y.
So plug these numbers into the equation and you get -4 = m(-3) + b.
M is slope and to find slope, you need to do (y2-y1) / (x2-x1).
In other words, it would be (-3 - -4) / (4 - -3) = 1/7 which is your slope (m).
Now plug that in for m to get the b variable.
-4 = 1/7(-3) + b.
B = -3.57
Your answer is y = 1/7x -3.57
