48/100=48%
To find the answer, you would put the total number of boys over the total number of kids who responded to the survey since the question wanted to know what percentage of all the kids were boys. Since the denominator is already 100, we can immediately say that the numerator, or 48, is the percentage of boys who took the survey. The other 52% of the kids were the girls who responded to the survey.

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the line of best fit on this scatter plot?
romanna [79]

Answer:

A. The y-intercept is 8 and the slope is -\frac{4}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given graph of line of best fit. We are asked to find the y-intercept and slope of our given line.

We know that y-intercept of a graph is the point, where line intersects y-axis. upon looking at our given graph, we can see that our line touches y-axis at point (0,8), therefore, y-intercept is 8.

Let us find slope of our given line using points (0,8)\text{ and }(6,0) as:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{0-8}{6-0}

m=\frac{-8}{6}

m=-\frac{4}{3}

Therefore, the slope of our given line is -\frac{4}{3} and option A is the correct choice.

Work out 5/8−2/5 Give your answer in its simplest form.
Inessa05 [86]
\frac{5}{8} -  \frac{2}{5}

First, find the LCD (least common denominator) of the two fractions.
List the multiples of each denominator and find the one that is common.
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40
Multiples of 5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40
40 is your LCD.

Second, what can you divide by to make the denominators of each fraction '40'? Whatever you do to the bottom you must do to the top.
\frac{5*5}{8*5} - \frac{2*8}{5*8}

Third, multiply.
\frac{25}{40} - \frac{16}{40}

Fourth, since the denominators are the same now, we can combine them.
\frac{25-16}{40}

Fifth, subtract '25 - 16' to get 9.
\frac{9}{40}

Since \frac{9}{40} is already in the simplest form, it is your answer.

Answer as fraction: \frac{9}{40}
Answer as decimal: 0.225
