I think I may be missing something ... I don't completely understand your question.
All you need to make a fraction is two numbers and a bar. The bar can be either
horizontal or slanty. Then you write one number on top and the other number on
the bottom, and bada-bing, you have a fraction.
You can make fractions like
2700 / 600
27 / 6
9 / 2 (all 3 of these have the same value)
600 / 2700
6 / 27
2 / 9 (all 3 of these have the same value)
Answer is 4 books per minute. 240 (books) divided by 60 (minutes in one hour) equals 4
Two and three tenths meters equals zero and fourty-six hundreths
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
The initial value is 3
It represents the distance between the bird and its nest before any elapsed time which is 3 miles.
<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>
The graph is shown in the attached image.
<u>The general form of a straight line is:</u>
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
The y-intercept is also known as the initial value. It is the value of y at x=0.
From the givens, we can note that at x = 0, the y-value is 3. This means that the y-intercept is 3.
Now, in the problem, x represents the time in minutes while y represents the distance of the bird from the nest in miles.
At x = 0, meaning before any time elapsed, the distance of the bird from its nest was 3 miles.
Hope this helps :)
