The answer is as follows:
1/5
0.35
12/25
0.5
4/5

Just for a bit of explanation, 1/5 is equal to 0.2, 12/25 is just barely under 0.5, 4/5 is equal to 0.8.
I hope this helps!

One way is to make them all decimals or all fractions:

.5 .2 .35 .48 .80 are the numbers above changed to decimals.
I will make them the same length (two digit past the decimal point) to compare
.50 .20 .35 .48 and .80

Now it is easy to put them in order

.2 .35 .48 .5 and .80

Let's put them into all fractions

5/10 1/5 35/100 12/25 and 4/5

Instead of finding a common denominator let's try this:
Think of them as test scores - the person who got 1 out 5 did the worst
Next came the person who got only 35 out of 100 - they only did better than the one above (1/5)
12/25 is almost 1/2 but a little below half the questions right
5/10 is exactly half the questions right (so it is bigger than 12/25 by a little).
4/5 is the best score (and the only one who passed).
So 1/5, 35/100, 12/25, .5 and 4/5 are in order least to greatest and match the answer above in bold.

I need help with intercepts from a graph

Rina8888 [55]

Explanation: The y axis is the line that goes up and down, vertical. The x axis is the line that goes straight across, horizontal. So, when looking for intercepts we have to see what numbers your graphed line goes through.

Make sure when you are writing your points you write it in (x,y) form. If you don't it will be wrong.

So, for our x intercept it would be -7,0.

This is because your graphed line goes through x at -7 and it has no y, so that would be 0.

For your y intercept, it would be 0,2

This is because our line does not go through x, so we make that 0. It does go through y at 2.

Hope this helps :)

If you need elaboration on anything let me know. I know sometimes with math it is kind of hard to explain through typing.

Evgesh-ka [11]

If you need it rounded, it would be 2 then 20 then 76.1. If you just need the base numbers, it would be 1 then 19 then 76.7

Simplify the expression: –3(9 − x) =

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Expand $-3(9-x): -27 + 3x$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-3(9-x)$

Apply the distributive law: $a(b-c)=ab-ac$

$a = -3, b=9, c=x$

$=-3*9-(-3)x$

Apply minus - plus rules:

$-(-a)=a$

$= -3*9+3x$

Multiply the numbers: $3 * 9 = 27$

$=-27+3x$

Hope this helps! If so, may I get Brainliest and a Thanks?

Thank you, have a good one! =)

Jared and Casey splurged on a special dinner for their anniversary. Their dinner cost $262.57, and the local sales tax is 4%. If

Maru [420]

Answer:

325.58

Step-by-step explanation:

so im not good at explaining but JUST their DINNER costed $262.57. so you also have to ADD TAX because everything has tax so to find the 4% sale tax you need to set up the equation 262.57 x .04 (which is 4%). you will get 10.50 if you round. now you need to ADD TIP which is 20%. so to find that you need to do 262.57 x .20 (which is 20%). you will get 52.51. so now take BOTH 52.51 and 10.50 and ADD them. when you get this you also add it to the 262.57 and it gets you to 325.58
