Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m = slope where

m = rise / run

rise = y2 - y1

run = x2 - x1

where

the given point P1 = (7, -12)

and is in the form of (x1,y1)

and

the given point P2 = (-9,36)

is in the form of (x2,y2)

then

m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

m = ( 36 - (-12) ) / ( -9 -7 )

m = ( 36 + 12 ) / ( - 16 )

m = 48 / - 16

m = - 3

the slope is negative 3

slope = - 3

8 students have 3/4 if a cake how much will each student get if they split it evenly

velikii [3]

Each student gets 1/8 of the cake.

we multiply 1/8 and 3/4. To do that we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. This gives (1*3)/(8*4) =3/32 of the cake
