Answer:

The greatest integer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Odd positive integers are positively directed numbers that can not be divided into to equal values without a remainder. Examples are: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 etc.

Given the following positive odd integers:

i. 9 and 3

9^{2} - 3^{2} = 81 - 9

         = 72

ii. 3 and 1,

3^{2} - 1^{2} = 9 - 1

         = 8

iii. 7 and 5

7^{2} - 5^{2} = 49 - 25

         = 24

iv. 21 and 13

21^{2} - 13^{2} = 441 - 169

             = 272

Therefore, it can be observed that the greatest integer that always divides the difference is 8.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-7,-4) and (-11,-2)? In simplest form
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Slope=-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope =(y2-y1) /(x2-x1)

A(-7,-4).... x1 =-7,y1 =-4

B(-11,-2)... x2=-11,y1=-2

Slope=(-2-(-4))/(-11-(-7))

Slope=(-2+4)/(-11+7)

Slope=2/(-4)

Slope=-1/2

Since its parallel the m is 1/2
The -6 is X1 and the 4 is y1
Okay now do formula

Y-4= 1/2(X--6)
Y-4= 1/2X+3
Add 4

Y= 1/2x +7
