Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we do this, we know that 2 gallons takes 14 seconds. (2:14)

Based on that data, we can know that 1 gallon takes 7 seconds. (1:7)

-> 2/14 = 1/7

Now we can multiply by 12 to get 12 gallons on one side.

What we do on one side has to happen to the other side.

So, 12 gallons * 1 gallons = 12 gallons and 12 gallons * 7 gallons = 84 gallons.

So the final answer is 85 gallons,

If it takes 14 seconds to pump 2 gallons then it takes 14/2=7 seconds to pump 1 gallon, so it takes 7*12=84 seconds to pump 12 gallons. So the answer is 1.

What is the slope of the line that goes through -3,7 & -17,3
Natalka [10]

Point 1: (-3, 7)

Point 2: (-17, 3)

To find the slope, we need to use the slope formula which is as follows: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). We will plug in each x and y coordinate from our points above, respectively.

m = (3 - 7) / (-17 - - 3)

m = (-4) / (-14)

m = 2/7

The slope of the line that goes through (-3, 7) and (-17, 3) is 2/7.

Hope this helps!! :)
