Place the figure in the starting position, at zero.
To subtract -2 – 5, move the figure
backward 2 spaces to -2. Turn around
for the subtraction. To do this, flip the
figure over. Then move it forward (the
direction the figure is now facing)
5 spaces to -7.
So-2 - 5 =
3. Use the figure to find - 3 - 2

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to y = 3x + 1

Data from 2005 for various age groups show that for each $100 increase in the median weekly income for whites, the median weekly income of blacks increases by $105. also, for workers of ages 25 to 54 the median weekly income for whites was $676 and for blacks was $527. (a) let w represent the median weekly income for whites and b the median weekly income for blacks, and write the equation of the line that gives b as a linear function of w. b = (b) when the median weekly income for whites is $760, what does the equation in (a) predict for the median weekly income for blacks?
