Mathematics

Answer:

\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ -  \frac{1}{2} }}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\

From the question we have

m =  \frac{6 - 8}{12 - 8}  =  -  \frac{2}{4}  =  -  \frac{1}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

-  \frac{1}{2}  \\

Hope this helps you

On first down, a football team had a loss of 8 yards. After two downs, the team had an overall gain of 20 yards. How many yards
mihalych1998 [28]
They’ve started out with 0yds of course so, -8yds on the first down. They’ve gained 20yds overall in both downs. You’re now trying to find “x”. -8+x=20. To find “x”, you do 20+8 because the 8 is negative and you would lose numbers in order to get 20, so “x” equals 28. Therefore, you’ve gained 28 yds in the second down and lost 8 yds in the first down.

I really, really hoped that helped. It took awhile to figure out, but I’m sure I’ve got it now.

The area of a rectangle is 12.65 m^2. the length measures 5.5 m. what is the width of the rectangle?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The width of the rectangle is 2.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, when we are asked to find the area of the rectangle, we will use the formula: Area= length * width. We should be given with at least two values, and then we can use the above formula and can find the third variable.

Now, we are given that the area of a rectangle is 12.65 m^2 and the length measures 5.5 m

So the width is given as:

Area= length * width\\\Rightarrow 12.56= 5.5 * width\\\Rightarrow width= \frac{12.56}{5.5}\\\Rightarrow width=2.3 ~m

So this is the required with of the rectangle.
