It is linear because both variables have an exponent of 1. (FYI: one of the exponents can be 0 and still be a linear equation).
2x + y = 8
<u>-2x </u> <u> -2x</u>
y = -2x + 8 ⇒ slope (m) = -2 and y-intercept (b) = 8
plot the y-intercept (0, 8). then plot the next point by counting the rise over run from the y-intercept. <em>count 2 units down and 1 unit to the right </em>= (1, 6).
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to find a common denominator which would be 24.
5/6 = 20/24
7/8 = 21/24
5/8 = 15/24
So your final answer would be 7 over 8.
