Step-by-step explanation: When fractions have the same bottom number, they're called like fractions. When adding and subtracting fractions, our goal is to get like fractions or fractions that have the same denominator.

Also, it's easy to compare like fractions because you just have to look at the numerators of each of the fractions you are givemn.

A coordinate plane with a line passing through (0, negative 3), (2, 0), and (4, 3).

adell [148]

Answer:

$y=\frac{3}{2}x-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line passes through: (0,-3), (2,0), and (4,3).

We first of all find the slope using $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Using $(x_1=0,y_1=-3),and\:(x_2=2,y_2=0)$ we find the slope to be

$m=\frac{0--3}{2-0}=\frac{3}{2}$

The equation is given by $y=mx+c$ , where $m=\frac{3}{2}$ is the slope and c=-3 is the y-intercept.

Therefore the equation is $y=\frac{3}{2}x-3$

Sam is placing rope lights around the edge of a circular patio with a diameter of 18 feet. The lights come in lengths of 54 inch

andrew-mc [135]

You can find the circumference of the circle with the circumference equals 2pir.
circumference=2pi9
circumference=18pi
circumference=56.55 feet
you can then turn the feet into inches by multiplying by 12
(56.55 feet)x(12inches/foot)=678.58 inches
then divide 678.58 inches by 54 inches to find how many light strands are needed.
(678.58 inches)/(54 inches/strand)=12.57 strands
