The fraction $\frac{7}{35}$ represents how many games Krista's softball team lost out of the 35 games Krista's team played.

To find the percent of games that Krista's team lost, we need to turn the fraction $\frac{7}{35}$ into a percent.

We can reduce $\frac{7}{35}$ by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 7 and 35 using 7.

7 ÷ 7 = 1

35 ÷ 7 = 5

Now, we have our reduced fraction.

1 ÷ 5 = 0.2

0.2 × 100 = 20%

Therefore, Krista's softball team lost 20% of their games.

Answer:

The answer to the question is -1.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step will be to write out the equation that we are working with:

This equation is

$0.2b + 0.6a = 12$

The next step is to write out the values of the figures that we are substituting:

$a = -1.2 b=-3$

Substitution in mathematics can best be understood as "something being used in place of another thing". This means that wherever the first variable appears in an equation, the substituting values will replace it and multiply the number it is attached to.

In this case, we will replace the 'b' and the 'a' with the - 1.2 and - 3 respectively.

$0.2(-3) + 0.6(-1.2) = -1.32$
