<span>0.03 x 1,000=30! In multiplying decimals, you'll move the decimal's period to the number of zeroes in the multiplier! 1,000 has 3 zeroes. So, it's equal to 30. So basically he was wrong because 0.03 times 1,000 doesn't equal 3 it equals 30. He made the mistake of not moving the decimal point enough.</span>

The slope (or average rate of change) formula is:
. It is easy to remember as "slope is easy and fun, rise over run" where the y-values of the 2 points would be the "rise" and the x-values of the 2 points would be the "run" So with two points, you label one point as
and the other as
. Then you insert these points into the slope formula (m represents slope). So,
where (-3,6) is x2 and y2 and (5,1) is x1 and y1. It would simplify to
.
