<h3>
Answer: Slope = -3/4</h3>
slope = rise/run
rise = -3 ... move down 3 units
run = 4 .... move to the right 4 units
============================================
Work Shown:
m = slope
m = rise/run
m = (change in y)/(change in x)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-17-(-2))/(24-4)
m = (-17+2)/(24-4)
m = -15/20
m = -3/4 is the slope
----------------
It basically means "move down 3 units, and move to the right 4 units"
So, slope = rise/run = -3/4
rise = -3 = move down 3 units
run = 4 = move to the right 4
You could express the slope as a decimal, and that would be -3/4 = -0.75, but you lose the rise and run values. So I recommend you keep the fraction.
Another problem with decimals is that sometimes we could have approximations that aren't exact. For example, if the slope was 2/3, then that approximates to 0.667 which may cause rounding errors down the line. Though I should point out that decimals do have their advantages in some cases.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5% of 55,000 is 825
add 825 to 500 it totals to 1325
16+(3+3)=22
22 would be the diameter of the circle.
Hence, (22÷2=11) will be the radius of the circle

So,
MINUS
will get you the answer 179ft...
