By putting a decimal at the end of it and moving it 2 spaces left. for example 23 you would put 23. and move the decimal 2 numbers left so you have .23

If the fraction is a mixed number change it to a improper fraction.
divide the numerator by the denominator.
if the division does come out evenly round out the decimal. not sure if this is the response you were looking for

In the year 1995, there were 1200 students at pine elementary school. In the year 2010 there were 1500 students. Find the rate o

AnnZ [28]

The rate of change from 1995 to 2010 is 20 students per year and the linear function that models the data will be: $y=20x-38700$

Explanation

In the year 1995, there were 1200 students and in the year 2010, there were 1500 students.

If $x$ represents the year and $y$ represents the number of students, then two points in form of $(x,y)$ will be: $(1995, 1200)$ and $(2010, 1500)$

So, the rate of change or slope = (change in value of y / change in value of x) $=\frac{1500-1200}{2010-1995}= \frac{300}{15}=20$

Now, plugging slope $(m)$ = 20 and first point $(x_{1}, y_{1}) =(1995,1200)$ into point slope form of linear equation $y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1})$ , we will get.....
