Answer: 36 / 2 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Jared needs to drill holes 2 1/4 inches apart in a 36 inch section of his garage. The expression that he can use to figure out the number of holes he will need to drill will be:
= 36 ÷ 2 1/4
From the expression we can then calculate the number of hours to drill. This will be:
= 36 / 2 1/4
= 36 / 9/4
= 36 × 4/9
= 16
He'll need to drill 16 holes

To find slope we use the formula ~
[ Ratio of the difference of y - coordinates of the points and the difference of x - coordinates of the points ]
let's find the slope of line passing through the given points ~
<h3>1. (10 , -9) and (-4 , -14) </h3>
<h3>2. (16 , 6) and (-4 , -14)</h3>
<h3>3. (9 , -4) and (5 , -20)</h3>
<h3>4. (-13 , 20) and (-18 , 20)</h3>
I hope it helps ~
