The answer is 3/5 because 4-1=3 , but the denomiantor stays the same

So, since they have the same denominator or bottom number, you would keep the denominator and subtract the top number. 4-1=3, so your answer would be 3/5

Jim was thinking of a number. Jim adds 20 to it, then doubles it and gets an answer of 99.2. What was the original number?

azamat

Alright, lets get started.

Jim was thinking of a number.

Suppose the number Jim was thinking, is x.

Jim adds 20 to it means number will be = $x+20$

And Jim doubles it, means $2*(x+20)$

Jim gets 99.2 and as per us, he gets $2*(x+20)$

So, making them equal

$2(x+20)=99.2$

$2x+40=99.2$

Subtracting 40 in both sides

$2x+40-40=99.2-40$

$2x=59.2$

$x=29.6$

It means the original number is 29.6. : Answer

Hope it will help :)

What is 3x-2y=-16 in slope intercept form

gogolik [260]

Answer:

y = (3/2)x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Make it into y = form so...

3x - 2y = -16

-2y = -3x - 16 (subtract 3x from both sides)

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x + 8 (divide both sides by -2)
