The slope for those points, as ONE (1) line is: y=-9/2<span>x.</span>
This is how I would work it out:
1st no. = x+1 2x+10=3(x+1)-7
2nd no. = x 2x+10=3x-4
x=14
1st no. is 15; 2nd no. is 14
To check: 28+10=38; three times the larger is 45; and 38 is 7 less than 45.
Answer: 8/9 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
The word 'of' means 'times' as far as fractions are concerned. In this case, we have 1/3 of 2 1/3.
First, it is a good idea to make 2 1/3 an improper fraction - as 8/3, so now we have:
1/3 of 8/3, but since 'of' means 'times' we have,
1/3 x 8/3 = 8/9
The answer is 8/9 cups.
