Line ab contains points a (3, −2) and b (1, 8). the slope of line ab is

−5
negative 1 over 5
1 over 5
5

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points.  We can find the slope m using

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (8--2)/ (1-3)

      (8+2)/(1-3)

     10/-2

   -5

The slope is -5

1/800 is the right answer

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
