Determine the slope of the line that goes through the points (-9,14) and (9,-2)

-8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line using two points, the equation is y2 - y1/x2 - x1.

In this example,

y2 = -2

y1 = 14

x2 = 9

x1 = -9

Plug the points into the equation.

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

-2 - 14/9-(-9)

Next, simplify.

-16/18

-8/9

m = -8/9

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
