2.8 = 2 + 0.8

*let's analyze the decimal 0.8 as a fraction

0.8 = 8/10

*but if we divide the numerator and denominator by the same common factor of 2, we find that the fraction can be reduced to:

(8/2)/(10/2) = (4)/(5) = 4/5

*now evaluating the whole value of 2 (from the 2.8), we know there are a total of (5) - fifths in order to make a whole, so for 2 whole, we require:

2*(5/5) = (2*5)/5 = 10/5

*Now we add the fractions together:

2 = 10/5
0.8 = 4/5

10/5 + 4/5

*add numerators only, the denominator stays as a 5

(10 + 4)/5 = 14/5

*there are no common factors between 14 & 5 (other than 1, but that won't help reduce the fraction any), so the fraction is in it's simplest form:

answer is: 14/5

2.8

= 2.0 + 0.8

= 2 + 4/5

= 10/5 + 4/5

= 14/5

Part A)
If f(x) - 3 is the new equation, it means there is a vertical translation of f(x) down 3 units. The y-intercept will decrease by 3 units. Areas of increasing on the function may be lessened as the function is being translated down 3 units. The areas of decrease will increase because the function is being translated down. End behaviour will not change from a translation as long as the function is continuous at each end, (not a finite function with end points). The evenness or oddness of f(x) will not change either.

Part B:
The y-intercept will be flipped horizontally about the x-axis and multiplied by 2. This will mean that if the y-intercept was positive, it will now be negative and vice versa. The increasing and decreasing regions of the graph will be flipped, so anywhere f(x) was positive will now be negative and vice versa. They will also be double what they were before because all values are multiplied by 2. The end behaviour will switch. If f(x) was from Quad1->Quad3 for example, it will now be Quad2->Quad4 because of the flip at the x-axis. The evenness and oddness of the function will not change seeing as the degree of f(x) is not affected.

Use the substitution method <br> Y=-2x+11 y=-3x+21
gogolik [260]

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Y = 2 y /3 − 3


x = − y /3 + 7

A bookkeeper has a balance of $83.92. If she collects $76.75
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The bookkeeper already has a balance of 83.92.  She collects 76.75 so that's 83.92+76.75 which equals to 160.67.  Then she pays out 38.58 so that's a deduction to what she already has.  160.67-38.58=122.09.

SO the bookkeeper has $122.09 left.
