What is the slope of the line through (-10, 1) and (0, -4)?

Correct The slope would be -0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the change in the y-coordinate and divide it by the change in the x-coordinate.

So it would be (1 - (-4)) = 5 for the change in Y. And it would be (-10 - 0) = -10 for the change in X. So the final slope would be 5 divided by -10, which would result in -0.5.

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope can be found by

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

   = (-4-1)/(0 - - 10)

   (-4-1)/(0+10)

  -5/10

  -1/2

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3

step-by-step explanation:

rearrange these functions vertically, with like terms in separate columns:

f(x) = 5x^3 - 2

g(x) =         +1

now subtract, column by column:

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3
