Dividing Mixed fractions

1 answer:

6 0

First you would make the mixed fractions into improper fraction by multiplying the denominator and the whole number, then adding the numerator. Then you would flip the second fraction and multiply.
Ex. 1 1/2 ÷1 1/2
1st. 3/2÷3/2
2nd: 3/2×2/3
3rd 3/2x2/3=1

What is the slope of the line with equation 6x+3y=12?

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

<h2>The slope m = -2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the equation in the standard form:

$6x+3y=12$

Convert to the slope intercept form:

$6x+3y=12$ subtract 6x from both sides

$3y=-6x+12$ divide both sides by 3

$y=-2x+4$

slope: m = -2

y-intercept: b = 4

In a certain function, y varies directly with x. If y = 6 when x = 8, find x when y = 9.

Hatshy [7]

If y = 6 when x = 8, then value of "x" when y = 9 is equal to 12

Solution:

Given that , In a certain function, y varies directly with x

And x = 8 when y = 6,

We have to find what will be the value of x when y = 9

Now, from the given information,

$\begin{array}{l}{y \alpha x} \\\\ {y=c x \rightarrow(1)}\end{array}$

where c is the proportionality constant

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Now, substitute } x=8 \text { and } y=6 \text { in }(1)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 8=c(6) \rightarrow c=\frac{8}{6}} \\\\ {\rightarrow c=\frac{4}{3}} \\\\ {\text { Then, }(1) \rightarrow x=\frac{4}{3} y} \\\\ {\text { So, when } y=9} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=\frac{4}{3}(9)} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=4 \times 3} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=12}\end{array}$
