Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for slope is (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)
In this case, it is (2 - 1/2)/(4-1) which is 1.5 over 3. The slope is 1/2

<u>Answer:</u>
Heather = 18 messages
Brian = 25 messages
Austin = 54 messages
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that Heather, Brian, and Austin sent a total of 97 messages.
Assuming the number of messages sent by Brian as x, we can say that Heather sent x-7 messages (7 fewer messages than Brian) and Austin sent 3(x-7) messages (3 times as many as Heather).

So Brian sent (x) messages = 25 messages,
Heather sent (x-7) messages = 25 - 7 = 18 messages; and
Austin sent 3(x-7) messages = 3(25-7) = 54 messages
