5 0

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

You can first reduce this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 6 and 15 using

GCF(6,15) = 3

6÷315÷3=25

We know that

is the same as

2÷5

Then using

Long Division for 2 divided by 5

gives us

0.4

Converting our number to a percentage:

0.4×100

=40%

Construct a linear equation for the table. What is the slope of the line

Klio2033 [76]

We have points (-3, 4), (-1, 2), (4, -3) and (6,-5)

Let's verify it's a line by calculating the slopes between successive points.

Slope is change in y over change in x.

(2 - 4)/(-1 - -3) = -2/2 = -1

(-3 - 2)/(4 - -1) = -5/5 = -1

(-5 - -3)/(6 - 4) = -2/2 =-1

Yup. We have a line of slope -1 through point (-1, 2)

y - 2 = -1(x - -1)

y = -x - 1 + 2

y = -x + 1

That's the linear equation for the table.

Answer: Linear equation: y = -x + 1 slope = -1
