With what in regard? For fractions, percentage is relative to the amount “full”. Think or a bottle of water, if it’s 50% full, it’s got 1/2 (50/100) filled with water. Simplifying is the process of taking a big fraction, say, 12/36, and finding the similarity to reduce it. 12 and 36 are both even, so let’s try to divide it by 2. 12/2 is 6, and 36/2 is 18. 6/18. However this is simplified it is not in simplest form, so we can divide It again. 6/2 is 3, and 18/2 9. 3/9 can be reduced by 3, making 1/3. 1/3 is the simplest form.

What are the x-intercept and y-intercept of the graph of y = 1/3x − 6
Brums [2.3K]
To find the y int, sub in 0 for x and solve for y
y = 1/3x - 6
y = 1/3(0) - 6
y = -6.....so the y int is -6 or (0,-6) <==

to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
y = 1/3x - 6
0 = 1/3x - 6
-1/3x = -6
x = -6 / (-1/3)
x = -6 * -3
x = 18....so the x int is 18 or (18,0) <==

Noah works at a concession stand selling bags of popcorn and cans of soda. A bag of popcorn costs $2.50 and a can of soda costs
dimaraw [331]

Set up 2 equations:

Total items sold: x + y = 300

This gets rewritten as x = 300-y

The second equation is for total amount made:

2.50x + 1.50y = 522

Replace x in the 2nd equation with the value of x from the first one:

2.50(300-y) + 1.50y = 522

Simplify:

750 - 2.50y + 1.50y = 522

Combine like terms:

750 - y = 522

Subtract 750 from both sides:

-y = -228

Divide both sides by -1 ( to make y positive)

y = 228

Now replace y in the first equation to solve for x:

x+ 228 = 300

Subtract 228 from both sides:

x = 72

He sold 72 bags of popcorn and 228 sodas.

It should be 8 if it is 5-5 which gives you 0.
Or it could be (5x5)-5=20+8=28.

(-1 1/4, 1 1/2) B

(-2 1/2, 1/4) C

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine that each tick mark represents 1/4 based off the given numbers. Now we just determine the points.

(2 1/4, 1 1/2) A

(-1 1/4, 1 1/2) B

(-2 1/2, 1/4) C
