Answer:  A. The slope is -\dfrac{4}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line helps to specify the direction of the line.

The slope of a line that passes through (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

\text{Slope}=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}

Then the slope of a line passes through origin i.e. (0,0) and (-9,12) is given by :-

\text{Slope}=\dfrac{12-0}{-9-0}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Slope}=\dfrac{12}{-9}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Slope}=-\dfrac{4}{3}

Hence, the slope is -\dfrac{4}{3}.

What does 4(m-2)=2(m-9) equal
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

m = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(m−2)=2(m−9)

(4)(m)+(4)(−2)=(2)(m)+(2)(−9)(Distribute)

4m+−8=2m+−18

4m−8=2m−18

Subtract 2m from both sides.

4m−8−2m=2m−18−2m

2m−8=−18

Add 8 to both sides.

2m−8+8=−18+8

2m=−10

Divide both sides by 2.

2m/2 = -10/2

m = -5

22.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3, 20 minute increments in an hour, and 1 and a half 20 minute increments in half an hour, so, you simply add 3 + 1.5 which equals 4.5.

Then, multiply 5 (miles) by 4.5 to get 22.5 (miles).
