Leonard spend \displaystyle \frac{1}{8}of his money on the comic books

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Fraction numbers are known as numerator and denominator

On a number line, fractions are expressed in points that lie between two integers

The general form of fractions is

\large{\boxed{\bold{\frac{a}{b}} }

a = numerator

b = denominator

Mixed fractions consist of whole number and ordinary fractions

Let M = All Leonard money

  • Leonard spent 1/4 of his money on a sandwich.

we translate this sentence into equation

\displaystyle S=\frac{1}{4} M

  • He spent 2 times as much on a gift for his brother as on some comic books.

a gift = 2 x comic books

let x = comic books

so a gift = 2x

we translate this sentence into equation

\displaystyle G=2\:CB

  • \displaystyle \frac{3}{8} of his money left

So the total money:

= sandwich money + gift + comic books + the rest of money

= \frac{1}{4}+2x+x+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{8}{8}

=\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{8}+3x=\frac{8}{8}

=\displaystyle \frac{2}{8}+\frac{3}{8}+3x=\frac{8}{8}

=\displaystyle \frac{5}{8}+3x=\frac{8}{8}

=\displaystyle 3x=\frac{8}{8}-\frac{5}{8}

=\displaystyle 3x=\frac{3}{8}

=\displaystyle x=\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}

so x = money for comic books = \displaystyle \frac{1}{8}

Which graph shows the points (–3, 5) and (4, –3) plotted correctly?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is clearly a linear relationship.  If Alex rented the movie for 0 days, he'd owe nothing.  If he paid $6 for a 3-day rental, the slope of this line would be m = rise / run = $6/(3 days) = $2/day, which is positive.

Then the equation for this graph is C(x) = ($2/day)x, where x is the number of days for which the movie is rented.

Using this formula, we find three particular points on the graph:

(1, $2), (2, $4), (3, ($6)
