9. What is the slope of the equation below?
y=-5 x + 9

slope = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 5x + 9 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 5

answer: standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0

step-by-step explanation:

standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0

(2x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

distribute to get into standard form

2x^2 - 4x + x - 2 = 0

2x^2 - 3x - 2 = 0

a = 2, b= -3, c = -2

a is your answer

-60.75

step-by-step explanation:

just add the numbers then put the negative sign on it
