Sorry it’s a bit messy, hope this helps
y-intercept -3
slope 1/2
is sufficient info with which to write an equation for a straight line:
y = mx + b becomes y = (1/2)x - 3.
You should check this by determining whether or not (2,-1) satisfies this equation.
Answer: Check the answers below
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember: slope is rise/run
1) 3/15 = 0.2 ft
2) 4/3
3) 2
4) 6/8
5) 2/9
N = d - 5
2n/(d + 16) = n/d - 1/3 n/d
2n/(d + 16) = 2/3 n/d Divide by 2n
1 / (d + 16) = 1/3 d
Here's the tricky part.
d + 16 = 3d the two denominators are equal. the numerators are both 1.
16 = 2d
d = 8
so the numerator is d - 5
n = 8 - 5
n = 3
Let's see if it checks out.
n = 3
d = 8
2*3 = 6
8 + 16 = 24
New fraction 6/24 = 1/4
(3/8 - 1/3 ) = 1/8
3/8 - 1/8 = 1/4 so it checks with the original conditions put on it.
