Answer:

farmers market sold 4/9 plums in bushel

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that at the beginning of the day we have 7/9 of a bushel of plums and that after a while there are 1/3 of a bushel of plums, so to calculate how many were sold we have to subtract the bushel of plums that were left from the initial ones

7/9 - 1/3

if we want to do this subtraction we have to find a fraction equivalent to 1/3 that can be subtracted from 7/9

1/3 = (1 * 3) / (3 * 3) = 3/9

now we are just the top and leave the denominator the same as before

7/9 - 3/9 = 4/9

Answer:

Farmers market sell (4/9) bushels of plums .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a farmer market has (7/9) bushel of plums when it opens in the morning and By noon , (1/3) of the plums are left.

Bushels of plums farmer market sells = Bushels of plums farmer market have in the morning - Bushels of plums farmer market are left with by noon

            =  \frac{7}{9} - \frac{1}{3}  = \frac{7-3}{9} = \frac{4}{9} = 4/9

Therefore, farmer market sells (4/9) bushels of plums .

Write an equation in slope-intercept form then Graph. <br> 3x-6y=-12
algol [13]
<h3><u>y = 1/2x + 2 is the given equation in slope-intercept form.</u></h3>

3x - 6y = -12

Currently, this is in standard form.

In order to convert this to slope-intercept form, we need to isolate y.

Add 6y to both sides.

3x = -12 + 6y

Add 12 to both sides.

3x + 12 = 6y

Divide both sides by 6.
