Answer:

8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is calculated by the change in y over the change in x. The change in y values is -8 and the change in x values is -5. The negatives cancel out to get 8/5.

Hi!

I can help you with joy!

  • \displaystyle\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} is the slope formula
  • Where
  • y2 is the y-coordinate of the point
  • y1 is the y-coordinate of the point
  • x2 is the x-coordinate of the point
  • x1 is the x-coordinate of the point
  • Here:
  • y2=-6
  • y1=2
  • x2=-7
  • x1=-2
  • Plug in the values:
  • \displaystyle\frac{-6-2}{-7-(-2)}
  • \displaystyle\frac{-8}{-7+2}
  • \displaystyle\frac{-8}{-5}

<u>Answer:</u>

\displaystyle\frac{8}{5}

Hope it helps.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

The weight of a bag of potatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuous variable are those which can take infinite number of value between any two values.

For example: amount of sand : it can take any value  let say between 100 and 101 kg. Such 100.1 kg,  100.888 kg and so on.

Discreet variable are those which takes values which can take on natural number values such 1,2 , and so on.

Example : no of students of class:  no. of students can only be natural numbers  like 45, 35 and so on

_________________________________________________

lets evaluate options now

a. The number of cars in a parking lot.--> it is Discreet variable as no. of cars can be in terms of natural numbers

_______________________________

The weight of a bag of potatoes. it is continuous variable as weight can take infinite set of values like 200 kg, 200.11 kg, 200. 111119 kg and etc.

__________________________________________

The number of repairs at a computer shop over the course of the week.

--> it is Discreet variable as number of repairs will also vary in natural number form like 10 repairs, 20 repairs etc. there cannot be 10. repairs.

_______________________________________________________

d. The total runs scored in a cricket game

---> It is Discreet variable as number of runs scored is also natural number like 251 runs, 301 runs. Runs cannot be 300.2 runs.

_____________________________

Hence, correct answers is
