Answer:

slope = - $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

2x + 3y = - 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3y = - 2x - 12 ( divide all terms by 3 )

y = - $\frac{2}{3}$ x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - $\frac{2}{3}$

For this case we have that by definition, the circumference of a circle is given by:

$C = \pi * d$

Where:

d: It is the diameter of the circle

They tell us that:

$d = \frac {35} {2}\\\pi = \frac {22} {7}$

Substituting:

$C = \frac {22} {7} * \frac {35} {2}\\C = \frac {770} {14}\\C = 55 \ cm$

Thus, the circumference of the circle is 55 centimeters.

An airplane on autopilot took 5 hours to travel 3 comma 510 kilometers. What is the unit rate for kilometers per hour?

loris [4]

Answer:

702 kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

3,510 divided by 5 = 702.

Since 5 is the number of hours it took to travel 3,510 kilometers, and we need to find the kilometers per hour, simply divide 3,510 by 5.
