Answer:

a. $\frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. $\textbf{3} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{+} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{4}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $a\frac{x}{y} = a + \frac{x}{y}$

$\therefore 3 + 1\frac{1}{4} = 3 + 1 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= 4 + \frac{1}{4}$

$= \frac{\textbf{17}}{\textbf{4}}$

b. $\textbf{2} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{-} \hspace{1mm} \textbf{1}\frac{\textbf{5}}{\textbf{8}}$

A mixed fraction of the form $-c\frac{a}{b} = - c - \frac{a}{b}$

$\therefore 2 - 1\frac{5}{8} = 2 - 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= 1 - \frac{5}{8}$

$= \frac{8 - 5}{8}$

$= \frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{8}}$

Hence, the answer.

Find the value of x if a linear function goes through the following points and has the following slope: (x,2), (-4,6), m=3

Anastasy [175]

The slope is defined as

$m=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\dfrac{6-2}{-4-x}$

So, we have the follwing equation:

$\dfrac{6-2}{-4-x} = 3 \iff 4 = 3(-4-x) \\\iff 4=-12-3x \iff16=-3x \iff x = -\dfrac{16}{3}$
