Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line has a "rise" between the two points of -4 units for a "run" of +1 unit. The slope is the ratio ...

m = rise/run = -4/1 = -4.

The slope is -4.

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "whole number" must be non-negative. Here, the slope is negative. If you're restricted to "a fraction or a whole number", then the appropriate answer is the fraction -4/1. We suspect that "integer" is meant where "whole number" is used.

Solve for h. -18+7h>12+9h

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

$h$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-18+7h>12+9h$

Add 18 to both sides:

$-18+7h+18>12+9h+18$

$7h>9h+30$

Subtract 9h from both sides:

$7h>9h+30$

$-2h>30$

Multiply both sides by -1 and flip the symbol:

$\left(-2h\right)\left(-1\right)$

$2h$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{2h}{2}$

$h$
