m=-(5/4)
From left to right, (1,3) is first and then comes (5,-2). Always remember when finding slopes without equations, the rule is RISE over RUN, to the numerator and denominator, respectively.
The y value of the second coordinates becomes negative which is unlike the y value in the first coordinates, which means our slope is downward, meaning it has a negative sign in front.
In every slope, there’s a numerator, being the rise, and a denominator, being the run.
To find the rise, we must look at the y values. Starting at 3 going to -2 has a space of 5 units, making that our numerator.
To find the run, the first x value is 1 and the second is 5, making a space of 4, which is out denominator.
With these two numbers and the negative sign, we get -(5/4) as our slope.
From 4 PM to 6 PM is 2 hours, and it's 15 minutes after 6, so her dance class is 2 hours and 15 minutes long.
The easiest way to do it is graph it and count.
