I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First figure out what 851 minutes 473 equals to, which is 378
So both sides of the equation should equal to 378
Plus 470 and 378 together
Which equals to 848
So the answer is eight hundred and forty eight
Plug in the points and see if y and x are equal to each other.
(2,3)
y= x-1
3= 2-1
3= 1 (not the solution)
y=3x
3=3*3
3=9 (not the solution)
y=x+1
3=2+1
3=3 (solution) We can check to make sure.
y=-3x
3=-3*3
3=-9 (not the solution)
y=x+1 <em>is the answer.
</em>
I hope this helps!
