What are the slopes of line A and line B? Look at the picture

Answers

we can mark points on the graph shown , check the image I have shared with this for the points .

Formula for slope = $(Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)$

So for Line A points are (1,3) and (0,-1)

So using t he formula slope is = $(-1-3)/(0-1)$

slope of line A =4

For Line B the points are (0,4) and (3,-5)

So using t he formula slope is = $(-5-4)/(3-0)$

slope of line B = -3

B. 19.6 square feet

C. 42.8 square feet

D. 78.6 square feet

Answers

Area of a circle is πr^2.

From this, we can calculate
π*2.5^2
= π*6.25
= 19.625
= 19.6
