Answer:

m = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from point (1,4) to point (3,-8), x increases by 2 and y decreases by 12. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -12/2 = -6.

Answer: ⁻6 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope use the slope equation: m=y₁-y₂/x₁-x₂

Sub: m= ⁻8-4/3-1

Solve: m= ⁻12/2

Sam: m= ⁻6/1 or -6

SVEN [57.7K]

The right answer is Option B: $\frac{5500}{p}=\frac{55}{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Current value of car = $5500

This is 55% of the original value.

Let,

p be the original price of car.

Therefore,

55% of p = 5500

$\frac{55}{100}p=5500$

Dividing both sides by p

$\frac{55}{100}*\frac{p}{p}=\frac{5500}{p}\\\frac{55}{100}=\frac{5500}{p}$

The equation $\frac{5500}{p}=\frac{55}{100}$ can be used to find the price Mrs. Merson paid for the car.

The right answer is Option B: $\frac{5500}{p}=\frac{55}{100}$

crimeas [40]

To cover the backyard they need 44700 square foot of sod.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Area of the backyard = 250 x 180 ft

= 45000 square ft.

Area of the swimming pool = 15 x 20 ft.

= 300 square ft.

Area of the backyard available for planting sod = 45000 - 300

= 44700 square ft.

To cover the backyard they need 44700 square foot of sod.
