<h3>Answer = -3/2</h3>

════════════════════

<h3>Known</h3>

x1 = 2

y1 = 1.5

x2 = 4

y2 = 0

════════════════════

<h3>Question</h3>

the slope = gradient (m)

════════════════════

<h3>Way to do </h3>

m =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}  =  \frac{(0 - 1.5)}{(4 - 2)}  =  \frac{( - 1.5)}{2}  = - \frac{3}{2}

════════════════════

<h3>Note</h3>

•Formula of the slope (m)

\boxed {\ m =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}}

Answer:

Your slope would be -3/2.

Explanation:

In order to solve for the slope, you’d have to use the slope formula, which is:

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

If you were to put the two points in to solve, you’d get:

m = 0 - 1.5/4 - 3

If you solved for that, you’d get:

-1.5/1 or (-3/2)/1

Now here’s the thing about this. You can’t have decimals for a slope, so, the one way you can get rid of that -3/2 is by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by 2. Once you do that, you’ll get:

-3/2

Hope it helps. ^^

Hi!

I believe the answer is D , because the common denominator is 12 .

4 times 3=12
2 times 6= 12

You multiply each fraction by 12/1 .

Hope it helps and have a wonderful day !

frez [133]

Answer:

14%

Step-by-step explanation:

The item dropped from $50 to $43 .

Therefore,

Decrease = $50 - $43

= $7

To get the % decrease, divide the decrease by the initial price and multiply the result by 100%

That’s

$7/$50 x 100%

$0.14 x 100%

= 14%

The price of the item decreased by 14%
