You add 3 1/2 to 2 1/7 to get the tallest skeleton.

3 1/2 = 7/2 and 2 1/7= 15/7

First you find common denominators for both fractions. 2 and 7 go into 14.

2 times 7 equals 14
7/2 * 7 = 49/14

7 times 2 equals 14
15/7 * 2 = 30/14

49/14 + 30/14= 79/14

then you simplify 79/14.... 14*5= 70 and 9 are left over. 5 9/14

<h2>(x, y) = (6, 1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 4y = -4

y = 1/2x -2

-x + 4(1/2x - 2) = -4

-x + 2x - 2 = 4

x = 4 + 2

x = 6

y = 1/2x - 2

y = 1/2 x 6 - 2

y = 3 - 2

y = 1

(x, y) = (6, 1)

We only know the value of <span>f(5)</span> therefore we need to figure out what we would put in for x in <span>f(<span>1/3 </span>x)</span> to get 5 set <span><span>1/3 </span>x=5</span><span>x=15
</span>now if <span>x= 15</span> then <span>f(<span>1/3 </span>x)
            = f(<span>1/3</span>×15)
            = f(5)=8
</span><span>and so
</span><span><span>1/4</span>×8−2=2−1=1

</span>therefore the "corresponding point" is <span><span>(15,1)</span></span>
