> what is the slope of the line?
The standard form of the linear equation is:
y = m x + b
where m is the slope, in this case the slope is m = 15
> What does the slope represent in the context of the
problem?
<span>The slope is the ratio of L over s. Therefore this means
that the slope represents the change in total length per change in the wear

Answer:
60000 square miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Great lakes beginning with consonant: Huron, Michigan, Superior
Great lakes beginning with vowel: Ontario, Erie
Step 2: Estimate the areas to nearest thousand.
Estimation of area of Huron = 23000 square miles
Estimation of area of Michigan = 22000 square miles
Estimation of area of Superior = 32000 square miles
Total area of Great lakes beginning with a consonant = 23000 + 22000 + 32000 = 77000 square miles
Estimation of area of Ontario = 7000 square miles
Estimation of area of Erie = 10000 square miles
Total area of Great lakes beginning with a vowel = 7000 + 10000 = 17000 square miles
Step 3: Difference between the total area of Great lakes beginning with a consonant and the vowel
77000 – 17000 = 60000 square miles
The answer is D, 26. 
is about 26.6!
