Answer:
8/17<9/17
Step-by-step explanation:
Might be wrong with my answer but my logic was that if there are 9 students who prefer math and 8 who prefer science, that there are 17 students total. If there are 17 students total the denominator should be 17. Since 8 of them prefer science, we can write that as 8/17 because 8 out of the 17 students prefer science. Similarly we can write the number of students who prefer math as 9/17 because there are 9 students out of 17 who do.
Answer: I really can't answer this without more info
Step-by-step explanation: needs more info to solve
If you plot the points, you'll see that it's a square with side 4.
A = s^2
A = 4^2
A = 16 units squared
Change the messy words into numerals
3 times a number minus 2 equals 13
3 × n - 2 = 13
3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2) = 13 + (2)
3n = 15
Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n
![\frac{3n}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B3n%7D%7B3%7D%20)
=
![\frac{15}{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B3%7D%20)
3 and 3 cancels out
n = 5
check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3 × 5 - 2 = 13
15 - 2 = 13
13 = 13
The number is 5
