the slope formula is y=mx+b where b is the y intercept and m is the slope we rewrite the equation by subtracting 4x from either side and then dividing both sides by 6 so we have y=-0.6x+2 so m the slope is -0.6
You can solve this in 2 easy steps: 1, multiply 44.55 by .17 (44.55 * .17 = 7.57) then adding the number you get to 44.55 (44.55 + 7.57 = 52.12). Your answer is D.
