Recall that the slope of a non-vertical line is a measure of the number of units the line rises (or falls) vertically for each unit of horizontal change from left to right. thus, the slope of a line passing through
p(2, 4)
and
q(x, f(x))
is given by
slope = m =
f(x) − 4
x − 2

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
