Hello!

You already have the answer, but I'll show you how to get it:

Subtract 4 3/5 (That's his old height) from 5 3/8 (That's his new height):

5 3/8 - 4 3/5 = 0.625

Now you want to convert 0.625 to a fraction.

Simplify: 0.625 = 625/1000

And 625/1000 is equivalent to 5/8.

So, your answer is 5/8, and those were the steps to find it! ^^ I hope this was helpful! :)

The equation $x + {y = 2 can be rewritten in a form that reveals the y-intercept of the graph of the equatior
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

y = \frac{2}{z} - \frac{x}{z}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + zy = 2

Required

Rewrite to show y-intercept

We have: x + zy = 2

Subtract x from both sides

zy = 2-x

Divide both sides by z

y = \frac{2}{z} - \frac{x}{z}

<em>The y intercet is: </em>\frac{2}{z}<em></em>

Which of the following figures could represent the cross section of a rectangular pyramid? Select all that apply.
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Options C and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A. Circle

We can't get a cross section in the form of a circle.

Option B. Cube

We can't get a cross section in the form of a cube.

Option C. Rectangle

When we slice a rectangular pyramid parallel to the base but not through the vertex, we get a Rectangle.

Option D. Square

We can not get a square by slicing a rectangular pyramid.

Option E. Triangle

By slicing a rectangular pyramid perpendicular to the base and passing through the vertex we can get the cross section in the form of  triangle.

Options C and E will be the answer.

-1/2y=1/2x+5 and y=2x+2
Anettt [7]

I assume this is the intersection of two lines, i.e. -1/2y is (-1/2)y.  Please tell me if it's really -1/(2y).

(-1/2)y=(1/2)x+5

Multiplying both sides by -2

y = - x - 10

The other equation is

y = 2x + 2

We can equate them to find the meet

y = - x - 10 = 2x + 2

-3x = 12

x = -4

y = 2x + 2 = -6

Check:  (-1/2)y=3, (1/2)x+5=3, equal, good

2x+2=2(-4)+2=-6=y, good

Answer: x=-4, y=-6

When Albert was born, he was 19.5 inches "tall". Today, on his 13th birthday, Albert is four feet, nine inches.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer: 76.5in or 6.37ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You would convert the 4 feet into inches which would be 48in. You would add the 9in and the 19.5in and come up with 76.5in. Then you just convert the 76.5in to 6.375ft
