Count the total number of students who prefer fiction novels: In 9th grade there are 35, in 10th grade there are 52, so there are 87 students who prefer fictions. The proportion of 10th grade students out of these 87 students is 52/87=0.60 approximately.
Ant's mass: 4 x 10 - 3
Elephant's mass: 8 x 106
First, we should evaluate these expressions by using PEMDAS. PEMDAS stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. From P to S is the order that we must follow these steps.
So first for the ant's mass, we have to multiply first since the M comes before the S, resulting in 40 - 3 grams.
Next we have to subtract, leading us to getting 37.
For the elephant since there is only one operation, all we have to do is multiply, which equals 848.
In order to see how many times larger the elephant is than the ant, we have to divide the elephant's mass by the ant's.
848/37 = 22.9
Since you only want an approximate answer, you can put down 23 or even go a bit more vague and put down 20.

for 7 & 8 you use the equation

your points are (3,8) & (9,5)
so you plug the numbers in
y2= 5
y1=8
x2=9
x1=3
you subtract them get a fraction and that is your slope
9 & 10
use the equation

plug you numbers in for y1 and x2 m is your slope plug it in and that is your equation
