Answer: m = -1
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem we're asked to find the slope of the line that contains the points (-2,5) and (6,-3).
Using our slope formula, we take the <em>second y</em> minus <em>the first y</em> which in this case is -3 - 5 over our<em> second x </em>minus <em>our first x </em>which in this case is 6 - -2.
-3 - 5 simplifies to -8 and remember that minus a negative can be thought of as plus a positive so 6 - (-2) can be thought of as 6 + (+2) which is 8.
Now we have -8/8. Notice that our slope can be simplified one step further so we have <em>m = -1</em>.
The variable that's used to represent slope is <em>m</em>.

Answer:
yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
In total, there were 147 books returned that week that had more than 200 pages. If 116 of those were returned on time, then 31 were returned late. This is about 79 percent of the 147 total. So, there is about a 79% chance that a randomly selected book with 200 pages or more was returned on time, or about 79/100.
