Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of −8.46 and 5.31 means we need to add −8.46+5.31.
We know that,
|-8.46| > |5.31|
It means we subtract 8.46 - 5.31
At hundredth place, 6-1 = 5
At tenths place, 4-3 = 1
At ones place, 8-5 = 3
It would mean that, 8.46 - 5.31 = 3.15
8.46 has a negative sign. It means that the final answer will have negative sign i.e. −8.46+5.31 = -3.15
Hence, the correct option is (a) " Because |−8.46|>|5.31|, subtract |5.31| from |−8.46| and the sign is negative".
1 kilometer = 1000 meters so 12 kilometers = 12000 meters
10 laps (400 meters/lap) = 4000 meters
12000/4000 = 3
Answer: 3 days
Y = 17 is not a linear function.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/4
(-1,-4)...x = -1 and y = -4
now sub and find b, the y intercept
-4 = 1/4(-1) + b
-4 = -1/4 + b
-4 + 1/4 = b
-16/4 + 1/4 = b
-15/4 = b
so the equation in slope intercept form is : y = 1/4x - 15/4
but we need it in general form : Ax + By + C = 0
y = 1/4x - 15/4.....multiply everything by 4 to get rid of fractions
4y = x - 15......subtract x and add 15 ...to both sides
4y - x + 15 = 0 <=== general form
1.)
6% of 38
1% of 38 = 3.8 ( you just move the decimal placement over by one.
1% * 6 = 6%
3.8 * 6 = 6%
3.8 * 6 = 22.8
6% =22.8
2.)
5% of 90
90/5 = 5%
90/5 = 18
18 = 5%
3.)
15/5 = 9/x
15/5 = 3
3 = 9/x
(nine divided by ? is three?....3!)
3 = 9/x(3)
3 = 9/3
3 = 3
x = 3
4.)
1/12 = .8/x
Multiply each side by ten.
1/12 * 10 = 5/6
.8/x * 10 = 8/x
5/6 = 8/x
Cross Multiply (switch the second numbers around)
5x = 6*8
Simplify
5x = 48
Divide both sides by 5 to get x by itself
5x/5 = x
48/5 = 9.6
*Whoo last problem lol*
5.)
A three liter bottle costs $2.97 what is the unit rate.
Well the unit is the object we're talking about, in this case a liter bottle.
The unit rate is how much it costs or is per unit.
Now that that's out of the way...
3L = 2.97
Like the other problems we want to get x by itself, so we'll divide by three)
3L/3 = L
2.97/3 = .99
L = .99
The Unit Rate is $0.99 per liter bottle.
Hope this helped :)
