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.

If ƒ(x) = -5n + 1 and g(x) = -6n + 2, find (ƒ + g)(-2).

Stels [109]

(f+g) (n) = (–5n +1 ) + (- 6n +2) = –11n +3

(f+g) (n) = –11n +3

(f+g) (–2) = – 11 (–2) +3 = 22 +3 = 25

I hope I helped you^_^

Yan is climbing down a ladder. Each time he descends four rungs on the ladder, he stops to see how much farther he has to go

anastassius [24]

Question:

Yan is climbing down a ladder. Each time he descends 4 rungs on the ladder, he stopped to see how much farther he has to go. If Yan made eight stops with no extra steps, which expression best shows another way to write the product of the number of ladder rungs that Yan and climbed?

4+4+4+4

8+8+8+8

(-1)(4+4+4+4)

(-8) + (-8) + (-8) + (-8)

Answer:

$Total = (-8) +(-8) +(-8) +(-8)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

<em></em> $Rungs = -4$ <em> --- It is negative because he is climbing down</em>

$Steps = 8$

Required

An expression for the number of rungs climbed

To do this, we simply multiply the number of rungs by the steps taken.

$Total = Rungs * Steps$

$Total = -4 * 8$

This can be rewritten as:

$Total = -8 * 4$

The product, when written as sum is:

$Total = (-8) +(-8) +(-8) +(-8)$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be 20 due to the fact that it would have to be 50 divided by 2.5 to get the answer of how many steps and 50 divided by 2.5 would equal 20
