To evaluate two fractions being divided, you must turn the right fraction into a reciprocal. That means you must put the bottom number at the top and then put the top number on the bottom (you’re basically switching them).
8/13 / 3/2
Now, once you turned the other number into a reciprocal, you multiply across. The top number times the other top number and do this to the bottom numbers, too.
8/13 * 3/2 = 24/26
You found the answer, 24/26. But as you can see, it’s not one of the choices. That’s because you need to simplify.
24/26 / 2/2 = 12/13
12/13 is your answer, or choice C!
I hope this helped. Comment below if you have any questions.
1) Answer: 21
As y varies directly with x, this means that the ratio y/x is always a constant.
In other words, the equation can be written as y = kx, where k is a constant term.
Thus,

y = 21
2) Answer: C
Exactly the same process as above.
Here's another method:
25 = k(140)
k = 25/140 = 5/28
Thus, when y = 36, 36 = kx
36 = 5/28(x)
36 * 28/5 = x; x = 201.6
3) 9 = k(12)
9/12 = k and k = 3/4
4) On the graph, it hits y = 1 at x = 4.
Thus, we can rewrite the equation as:
y = (1/4)x, where the constant term is 1/4
5) y = kx
The distance represents the x-ordinates, and the time represents the y-ordinates.
9.5/475 = 0.02
4 = 0.02(x), in hours.
x = 200 miles.
Answer:
y = 3x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find the slope (m)
m =
=
=
= 3
y = mx + b
y = 3x + b
(4, 3)
y = 3x + b
3 = 3(4) + b
3 = 12 + b
-12 -12
-9 = b
(1, –6)
y = 3x + b
-6 = 3(1) + b
-6 = 3 + b
-3 -3
-9 = b
y = 3x - 9
To check: (1, –6)
y = 3x - 9
-6 = 3(1) - 9
-6 = 3 - 9
-6 = -6
Hope this helps!
