Assessment items What is the quotient? 1 5/8 ÷(−1 3/5 )

Mathematics
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]3 years ago
4 0

We need convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.

1\dfrac{5}{8}=\dfrac{1\cdot8+5}{8}=\dfrac{8+5}{8}=\dfrac{13}{8}\\\\1\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{1\cdot5+3}{5}=\dfrac{5+3}{5}=\dfrac{8}{5}

Divide the number by a fraction, this is the same as multiply this number by the reciprocal of the fraction:

1\dfrac{5}{8}\div\left(-1\dfrac{3}{5}\right)=-\dfrac{13}{8}\div\dfrac{8}{5}=-\dfrac{13}{8}\cdot\dfrac{5}{8}=-\dfrac{(13)(5)}{(8)(8)}=-\dfrac{65}{64}\\\\\boxed{1\dfrac{5}{8}\div\left(-1\dfrac{3}{5}\right)=-1\dfrac{1}{64}}

Graph the line with slope <br> −3/4<br><br> passing through the point <br> , (3,3)
Nookie1986 [14]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/4
(3,3)....x = 3 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = -3/4(3) + b
3 = -9/4 + b
3 + 9/4 = b
12/4 + 9/4 = b
21/4 = b.....or 5.25 for graphing purposes

so ur equation is : y = -3/4x + 21/4

ur y int = (0,21/4) or (0,5.25)

ur x int can be found by subbing in 0 for y and solving for x
y = -3/4x + 21/4
0 = -3/4x + 21/4
3/4x = 21/4
x = 21/4 * 4/3
x = 84/12 = 7.....so ur x int is (7,0)

so plot ur points (7,0) and (0,5.25)....now start at (0,5.25) and since the slope is -3/4, come down 3 spaces and go to the right 4 spaces, then down 3, and to the right 4 and u will eventually cross the x axis at (7,0)
