Answer:

$-\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} =\frac{rise}{run}$

Slope is the change in the y values over the change in the x values. Insert values:

$(-3_{x_{1}},4_{y_{1}})\\\\(7_{x_{2}},-2_{y_{2}})\\\\\frac{-2-4}{7-(-3)}$

Simplify:

$\frac{-2-4}{7+3}=\frac{-6}{10} =-\frac{3}{5}$

Therefore, the slope is $-\frac{3}{5}$ .

You can set this up as an algebraic equation using the ratio:

$\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{x}{x+1250}$
where x = number of skiers

Cross multiply:
x + 1250 = 2x

Solve for x:
-x = -1250
x=1250

To find the number of snowboarders, add 1250.
1250 + 1250 = 2500

1250 skiers and 2500 snowboarders bought season passes.

If f(x) is differentiable for the closed interval [−4, 0] such that f(−4) = 5 and f(0) = 9, then there exists a value c, −4 <

Pavel [41]

$\bf \textit{mean value theorem}\\\\
f'(c)=\cfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a=-4\\
b=0
\end{cases}\implies f'(c)=\cfrac{f(0)-f(-4)}{0-(-4)}
\\\\\\
f'(c)=\cfrac{9-5}{0+4}\implies f'(c)=\cfrac{4}{4}\implies f'(c)=1$
