Answer:

Slope is 5/17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the y's and put on top of a fraction. Subtract the x's and put on the bottom of the fraction. Simplify. Be sure to start with the x and y that go together in front of the minus sign and end with the other x and y behind the minus sign.

7 - 2 put 5 on top.

11 - -6 is 17 (because 11 - -6 is the same as 11+6)

So you get 5/17 and it cannot be simplified so it is your answer.

Answer:

5/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

We have two points:

(x₁, y₁) = (11, 7) and (x₂, y₂) = (- 6, 2)

Substitute the coordinates into the slope formula:

m = (2 - 7)/(-6 - 11) = - 5 / - 17 = 5/17

Plzzz helpppp!!!!! How can you identify the solution to a system of inequalities?

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The solution of a linear inequality is the ordered pair that is a solution to all inequalities in the system and the graph of the linear inequality is the graph of all solutions of the system. Graph one line at the time in the same coordinate plane and shade the half-plane that satisfies the inequality

What is the value of g(f(-5))?

fredd [130]

Replace x in the equation for f(x) with -5:

|2x +9| = |2(-5) +9| = |-10 +9| = |-1| = 1

Now find x 1 and see where the graph of G(x) crosses the Y :

It crosses ay Y = 5

The answer is A. 5
