since the rate is a weekly basis, the period will also be in a weekly basis, so t = 4, assuming a month to be 4 weeks.

Answer:
This problem is just reduced by 2
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to have a calculator that puts your answer back into fraction form.
This problem is just reduced by 2
Easiest way:
Look at A and C. To get from A to C you need 6 steps to the right and 2 steps upwards.
Slope means (in layman's terms) that how many steps you take upwards when you take 1 step to the right.
In your case you take 2/6 steps, because it would take you 6 steps to the right to go 2 steps upwards.
A slope of 4 would mean that 1 step to the right is followed by 4 steps upwards. A slope of -5 means 1 step to the right, 5 steps downwards.
To get from A to E you need 9 steps to the right and 3 steps upwards. This means a 3/9 slope. The simplest form of it is 1/3.
1/3 slope means that for every 3 steps to the right you take 1 step upwards.
I hope this was understandable, this is how they taught me this in 5th grade more than a decade ago.
