Answer:

Steps

-x/3 >5

Multiply both sides by 3

3(-x/3)>5.3

Simplify

-X> 15

Multiply both sides by - 1 (reverse the inequality)

(-x)(-1)<15(-1)

Simplify

X< -15

so C is the answer

What is the slope of the line ?

atroni [7]

Answer:

-2 $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through points (1,4) and (4,-4)

Slope (m) = change in y ÷ change in x

i.e m = $\frac{-4 - 4}{4 - 1} = \frac{-8}{3} = -2\frac{2}{3}$

A recipe calls for 3/4 cup of butter. Angie wants to triple the recipe, but she has only 1 5/8.

Lyrx [107]

Let's start out by tripling the original recipe to see how much butter Angie needs.

$\frac{3}{4} * 3 = total$
$\frac{3* 3}{4} = total$
$\frac{9}{4} = total$
$2 \frac{1}{4} = total$

So we need $2 \frac{1}{4}$ cups of butter, but Angie only has $1 \frac{5}{8}$ . Let's subtract what Angie has from the total to see how much more she needs.

$2 \frac{1}{4} - 1\frac{5}{8} = n$
$\frac{9}{4} - \frac{13}{8} = n$
we will need the least common denominator for both fractions
$\frac{2}{2} *(\frac{9}{4}) - \frac{13}{8} = n$
$\frac{18}{8} - \frac{13}{8} = n$
$\frac{5}{8} = n$

So Angie need $\frac{5}{8}$ cups more of butter for the recipe.
