Start by proving to them that the number 0.57 can be converted into a fraction . A whole number can't exactly be put in to a fraction. 0.57 can be converted to 14.25/25. This information means that 0.57 IS a rational number. Hope this convinced them!
Count down until you reach the line the point is on and count to lines until you reach the point
In this case down 2 and right 4
So your slope is negative
And the line crosses the y-axis at 1 so you intercept is 1
-2/4x+1 would be correct but it is not simplified
-1/2x+1 is the correct answer because the equation is simplified
Answer: 49.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(1,2)
y=2
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=3
3x+5y=13
solve the equation
x=3-y
3x+5y=13
substitute the value of x into an equation
3(3-y)+5y=13
distribute
9-3y+5y=13
add -3y to 5y
9+2y=13
subtract 9 from both sides
2y=4
divide both sides by 2
y=2
substitute the value of y into an equation
x=3-2
subtract 3 to 2
x=1
--------
