What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (6,2) and (12,-2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{slope\, (m)=\dfrac{change\ in\ Y}{change\ in\ X}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}

From the picture:

(6, -2)    ⇒     x₁ = 6,  y₁ = -2

(12, -2)     ⇒     x₂ = 12,  y₂ = -2

So the slope:

\bold{m=\dfrac{-2-(-2)}{12-6}=\dfrac{0}{6}=0}

From your writing:

(6, 2)    ⇒     x₁ = 6,  y₁ = 2

(12, -2)     ⇒     x₂ = 12,  y₂ = -2

So the slope:

\bold{m=\dfrac{-2-2}{12-6}=\dfrac{4}{6}=\dfrac23=0.\overline6}

A recipe uses 2 cups of sugar to make 32 brownies. How many cups of sugar are needed to make 72 brownies?
White raven [17]
4 and a fourth. This is because 2 * 32 is 64, then you need to divide 32 by 4 to get 8 left. I am sorry if I solved this incorrectly. Make sure to check with your coordinator ( teacher ) or parent to help solve this. 32 is divided into 4ths.
