Answer:
He multiplied the radius by 2 instead of squaring it
He announced that the US would no longer convert dollars to gold at fixed value
To find the slope given two points, you need to subtract the two y values over the two x values
(-5,-3) (9,-6)
-5 will be x1, and -3 will be y1. 9 will be x2, and -6 will be y2. You then need to put the numbers in the correct place in the equation.
y2-y1 -6-(-3) -9
-------- = -------- = ----
x2-x1 9-(-5) 14
Now that we have the slope (-9/14) you can use one of the coordinates to find the value of b.
Let's use (9,-6).
-6=-9/14(9)+b
-6=-81/14+b
+81/14
b=-3/14
Your final equation is y=-9/15x-3/14
Let's call the original amount of money x.
We know that she has 2/5 of the original amount left, and that this is equal to $15.
Therefore, 2/5(x) = 15, and x = $37.50.
