5/8 - 17/8
combine : 5-17 / 8
subtract : 5 - 7 = -12
-12/8
apply fraction rule ( -a/b = - a/b) : - 12/8
cancel common factor 4
answer : - 3/2
I hope this helped
Answer:
y = -3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The hypotenuse is on the same line as BC but twice as long. So extend that line up and it will cross the y axis at (0,9). 9 will be your y intercept.
To find the slope start at C and count up 9 and to the left 3 to get to B.
So the slope is rise/run or 9/(-3) = -3.
Final equation would be y = -3x + 9
Answer:
intersection of the y axis
Answer:
Brittany needs another $3.7405.
Step-by-step explanation:
Per pound Cost of turkey = $5.96 per pound
The amount Brittany buys the turkey = 2.55 pounds
Brittany's cost for turkey = 2.55 × $5.96 = $15.198
Per pound cost for cheese = $3.35 per pound
The amount Brittany buys the cheese = 3.7 pounds
Brittany's cost for cheese = 2.55 × $3.35 = $8.5425
So,
Brittany's total cost = Turkey cost + Cheese cost
= $15.198 + $8.5425
= $23.7405
As brittany gave the clerk 20 dollars.
So, the amount she further needs will be:
$23.7405 - $20 = $3.7405
Therefore, Brittany needs another $3.7405.
