Answer:

-9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is equal to the change in y, over the change in x, or rise over run.

x, is the run

y, is the rise

You can substitute the coordinate numbers on the equation to find the slope. which is y2-y1/x2-x1

m= 17-(8)

——

2-(6)

Your answer will be -9/4 (it doesn’t matter where the negative goes, and there’s a negative because 2-6= -4)

Hope this helps.

Answer:

I'll setup the problem and leave the computation to you

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to calculate fixed payments

$P = \frac{r(PV)}{1- {(1 + r)}^{ - n} }$

P= payments

r = interest rate for the period (which is a quarter )

PV = present value (or the amount borrowed)

n = number of periods

r = .25/4 (4 months = quarter of a year)

n = 4*10

PV = R450550.00

Your friend claims that when a polynomial function has a leading coeffcient of 1 and the coefficients are all integers , every p

sammy [17]

Using the rational root theorem, it is found that your friend is correct.

<h3>What is the rational root theorem?</h3>

It is a theorem that states that for a polynomial with integer coefficients, with q being the factors of the leading coefficient and p being the factors of the constant, every <u>possible rational root</u> is the format $\frac{p}{q}$ .

In this problem:

The leading coefficient is 1, hence it's only factor is $q = 1$ , thus guaranteeing that every possible rational zero is an integer, which means that your friend is correct.
