Answer:
m = -7/-8 or 0.875
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = m
Formula for slope w/ two points is: m = y2 - y1
/ x2 - x1
m= -4 - 3/ -6 - 2
m = -7/ -8
m = -7/-8 or 0.875
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
If you're looking for direct correlation, you're looking for a proportion for the second box. So you set the ratio of 2.5:5.5 up as a fraction. 2.5/5.5 and set it equal to the second box 3/x.
2.5 = 3
5.5 x
cross multiply
16.5=2.5x
and divide
16.5/2.5 and you get your answer
The slope is 2 and the y-intercept is -2
