Answer:

slope = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through the two points P=(x1,y1) and Q=(x2,y2) is given by m=y2−y1/x2−x1.

We have that x1=2, y1=5, x2=8, y2=−4.

Plug the given values into the formula for slope: m= (-4)-(5)/ (8)-(2) = -9/6 = -3/2

the slope of the line is m = -3/2

Is the quotient of 3/5 ÷ 6/7 greater than or less than 3/5? Explain
Vikki [24]

The quotient of two fraction is the multiplication between the first and the inverse of the second:

\dfrac{a}{b} \div \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{a}{b} \cdot \dfrac{d}{c}

So, in your case, you have

\dfrac{3}{5} \div \dfrac{6}{7} = \dfrac{3}{5} \cdot \dfrac{7}{6} = \dfrac{7}{10}

So, the question now is: which is larger, 7/10 or 3/5? To answer this question, transform the second fraction so that it will have denominator 10 as well:

\dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{3\cdot 2}{5 \cdot 2} = \dfrac{6}{10}

So, now it is clear that

\dfrac{7}{10} > \dfrac{6}{10}

1kg costs £1.28. what is the cost of 250g
vivado [14]
First, convert 1 kg to g.

1 kg = 1000 g

So 1000 g = 1.28

Set up a proportion:

1000/1.28 = 250/x

Cross multiply:

1000x = 320

Divide 1000 to both sides:

x = 0.32

So 250g costs £0.32

Kerry and three friends went out for dinner. They split a large pizza and each person had a salad and a soda. They want to leave
klio [65]

Answer:

Each person will pay $ 7.20

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the total bill

Pizza $18.60

Salad $2.50

<u>Soda $2.25</u>

Total  $ 23.35

Sales Tax would be=  8 1/4% of $ 23.35 =$ 1.926= $ 1.93

Tip = 15% of $ 23.35= $ 3.5025

Total Bill paid= $ 23.35 + $ 1.93+ $3.50= $ 28.7825 or $ 28.78

Now dividing the bill among 4 persons = $ 28.78/4= $ 7.196 or $ 7.20

Paying the bill equally is better  and convenient than paying alone as each person gets an equal share of pizza, salad and the soda.
