To multiply a fraction, imagine it this way. Start with 1/4. Then if you multiply 1/4 by 2 it would be 1/2.
If you have a quarter, and you times that quarter by 2, you have half a dollar.
It only needs to be simplified if you can simplify the fraction.
Slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0 or (0,y))
You know m = -3, so you can plug it into the equation
y = mx + b
y = -3x + b
To find "b", plug in the point (4,-2) into the equation
y = -3x + b
-2 = -3(4) + b
-2 = -12 + b Add 12 on both sides
10 = b
y = -3x + 10 Your answer is B
The number or (x) is 4.I hopes this helps you with your work <3
Answer:
right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion. If bass to catfish is 10 : 7, it must be equal to 425 : x.
7/10 = x/425 → cross multiply and solve → 10x = 7 * 425 → 10x = 2975 → x = 297.5 which is rounded to 298. There are approximately 298 catfish.
