To solve (8/5 + 4)7, you first have to add 8/5+4. But you cannot simply add the too because they have to be in a common denominator 'form'. To do that, we find a common denominator which is 5. We then multiply 4/1 by 5.
8/5 + 4/1= 8/5 +20/5.
Now you can solve; 8+20= 28. You leave the denominator as 5.
You get 28/5 and now you have to multiply it by 7/1. Another of saying 28/5 is 5 3/5. So 5 3/5 x 7/1= 39 2/10 (final answer)
You would multiply the growth rate (.009) by 2/3 to get the percent rate per year. Therefore, the answer is .006
The slope is the change in Y over the change in X
The change in y is -2-0 = -2
The change in X is 3-9 = -6
The slope is -2/-6, which simplifies to 1/3
Fourths, then b. Sorry if late.
