7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.
From given question,
252 lb = 36 ft² ..........(1)
The number of pound for an area of 1 square foot is calculated as follows:
x = 1 ft² .......(2)
The area and the amount of gravel are illustrations of proportions.
From (1) and (2) we get an equation,
⇒ x × 36 = 252 × 1
⇒ x = 252/36
⇒ x = 7 lb
We need to find the area that could be covered with 315 lb of gravel
The area to be covered with 315 lb gravel is calculated as follows:
315 lb = y ............(3)
From (1) and (3) we get an equation,
⇒ y × 252 = 36 × 315
⇒ y = 45 ft²
Therefore, 7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
or -0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope formula is as shown:

We can have A = (
,
) and B = (
,
).
We can hence plug in the values into the formula to get
.
As we simplify, the negatives on the top row cancel out to give us an addition sign instead and we add them.
