A road drops 748 feet for every 374 feet forward, determine the slope of the road. The slope can be positive or negative.

positive

Step-by-step explanation:

trust me if its wrong den sry

Slope = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the road goes down 748 feet every 374 feet forward, we can calculate slope by dividing the drop by the travel.

748/374 = 2

Since the road is going down, the slope has to be negative so it is -2.

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
