Answer: -\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, let's turn the equation into slope-interept form. In slope intercept form, y=mx+b, we know that m=slope.

x+2y=16             [subtract both sides by x]

2y=-x+16          [divide both sides by 2]

y=-\frac{1}{2}x+8

Now, we know that m=-\frac{1}{2}. That tells us -\frac{1}{2} is the slope.

Suppose the large number of auto accidents in a small town results in new legislation that requires all citizens of the town to
tangare [24]

Answer:

a. decrease

b. recklessly

c. increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the large number of auto accidents in a small town results in new legislation that requires all citizens of the town to install new anti-lock brakes on their cars. These new brakes cut the time it takes a car to stop by 50%, allowing drivers to avoid collisions with other cars and pedestrians more easily. The new brakes <u>decrease</u> the probability that a vehicle will collide with another vehicle but also give drivers an incentive to drive more <u>recklessly</u> which could potentially <u>i</u><u>ncrease</u> the number of car accidents.

Because the new brakes cut the time it takes a car to stop by 50%, allowing drivers to avoid collision easily, drivers may become confident and drive recklessly which could potentially increase the number of car accidents

A jeweler is dividing
tatuchka [14]

<em><u>Question:</u></em>

A jeweler is dividing 3/8 of a pound of rubies among 4 lots. What part of a pound will each lot weigh? A.1/4 B.1/8 C.1/16 D.3/32

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

Option D

Each lot weight \frac{3}{32} part of pound

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

A jeweler is dividing 3/8 of a pound of rubies among 4 lots

To find: part of a pound each lot weigh

From given,

\frac{3}{8} \text{ of a pound } = 4 lots

Let "x" be the part of a pound each lot weigh

Therefore,

\frac{3}{8} \text{ of a pound } = 4 lots\\\\"x" part = 1\ lots

This forms a proportion and solve by cross multiplying

\frac{3}{8} \times 1 = 4 \times x\\\\x = \frac{3}{32}

Thus, each lot weight \frac{3}{32} part of pound
