Alright, so since you can't multiply 2/9 into 1 super easily, we could divide it by 2 and multiply it by 9 then to get 1, so that's what we'll do. Since 3+3/5 is
15/5+3/5=18/5 (since 5 goes into 15 3 times), we can divide that by 2 to get 18/2/5=9/5. Multiplying that by 9, we get 9*9/5=81/5=the amount of minutes it would take to iron 1 shirt. Since 5 goes into 80 16 times, we can write 81/5 as 80/5+1/5=16+1/5. In addition, we need to find how long it would take to iron 5 shirts, and to do that we can multiply 1 shirt's time by 5, getting
81*5/5=405/5=81 minutes since 5 goes into 405 81 times.

What is the y-intercept of the graph of y = 2.5x? a. 2.5 c. 0 b. 1 d. -1
Alla [95]

Answer:

answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of a line is expressed as shown:

y = mx+c where;

m is the slope or gradient of the line

c is the intercept of the line

Given the equation of the line graph as y =2.5x

Comparing the given equation with the general equation, it is seen that m = 2.5 and c = 0 (since there is no value for the intercept)

Based on the explanation, the y-intercept of the graph is therefore 0
