1 answer:

7 0

1/3 and 33.3 percent are nearly equivalent. 1/3 is actually equal to 33.33333333% (with never ending 3s at the end), so 1/3 is slightly greater than 33.3% (which has only one 3 after the decimal place).

A line that passes through the point (x,y), with a y-intercept of b and a slope of m, can be represented by the equation y = mx

tester [92]

Answer:

b=-18

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line that passes through the point $P(x_o,y_o)$ and it has slope $m$ , the equation of the line is:

$y-y_o=m(x-x_o)~=>y=mx+y_o-mx_o~=>b=y_o-mx_o\\\\b=-6-4(3)=-18$

Taylor has saved $99 for a tablet. That is 45% of the cost of the tablet. How much does the tablet cost?

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

$220

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

We know that 99 over some number (x) must equal 45%

99/x=45/100

Cross multiply

45x=9,900

Divide by 45 on both sides

x=220

So, the tablet costs $220

Hope this helps! :)

Alice Correa bought three yards of cloth to make a dress. The cloth was on sale for $1.93 per yard.

Ray Of Light [21]

Since the unit rate is $1.93 per yard, you need to multiply the number of yards by 1.93. So 1.93 x 3 = 5.79. Next, you convert 5% to a decimal, which is 0.05. Now, multiply 5.79 by 0.05, which is about 0.29. Finally, add 0.29 to 5.79, giving you the answer of 6.08. Alice payed $6.08; D.

Are thes coordinates a function or not? (2,2) (2,7) (-2,9) (-4,-5)

blagie [28]

This is not a function. There are multiple outputs for the same input at $x=2$ . A function only has 1 output for every input.
