Slope is 2/-1 or -2. Because you go up twice and then you go left once.
The rate of change in this pattern is 2:1 comparing the change in 'y' to the change in 'x'.. this means that if you go form 33 to 51 ( an increase of 18), then the the increase from 16 to ? will be 9. Therefore, ? = 16 + 9 or 25
? = 25
The shaded area is 299.59un^2.
The entire race is 1 full race.
One full race is 1.
He ran 3/8 of 1, so he ran 3/8.
He needs to run the rest of the race.
The rest is unknown, so we call it x.
When you add 3/8 to the unknown, you get the full race.
The equation is
x + 3/8 = 1
Change 1 to a denominator of 8.
x + 3/8 = 8/8
Subtract 3/8 from both sides.
x = 5/8
Answer: He still needs to run 5/8 of the race.
