You could change 0.393 to a fraction by putting it over 1000
in this case put it over 0.393= 396/1000
the / is the fraction
it is 396 over 1000
The values go up by 2. So your answer would be 20.
The common point between y = 2x + 5 and y = (1/2)x + 6 will have the same values for x and y.
Therefore, set the two y expressions equal to obtain
2x + 5 = (1/2)x + 6
Subtract (1/2)x from each side.
(3/2)x + 5 = 6
Subtract 5 from each side.
(3/2)x = 1
Multiply each side by 2/3.
x = 2/3.
From the first equation, obtain
y = 2*(2/3) + 5 = 19/3.
The common point is (2/3, 19/3). It is not equal to (3, 1/2).
Answer: False
