Answer:
<em>The correct answer is: A</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Points on a Numeric Line</u>
The numeric line shown in the figure has four points A, B, C, and D. It's clear that each marked division of the line has a value of 1/4 units and all four points are below the reference zero, thus all are negative.
Point A is clearly on the -2 mark, thus
A=-2
Point B is one mark above A, thus it's located at:


Point C is one mark below -1, thus:

Finally, point D is one mark below 0:

The correct answer is: A
Answer:
5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the denominator be x and numerator be y.
Given, numerator is 4 less than denominator
=> y = x - 4 ...(1)
When 5 is added to both:
Numerator = y + 5 , and, denominator = x + 5
Now their ratio is 5/7.
=> (y + 5)/(x + 5) = 5/7
=> 7(y + 5) = 5(x + 5)
=> 7y + 35 = 5x + 25
=> 7y - 5x = 25 - 35
=> 7(x - 4) - 5x = -10 {y=x-4}
=> 7x - 28 - 5x = -10
=> 2x = 18
=> x = 9
Thus,
Fraction is y/x = (x-4)/x = (9-4)/9 = 5/9
You can figure the line for each pair of points, or you can try the points in the equation you have and see which are on the line.
First answer: x=1, y=-5×1 +4 = -1 . . . not 9. (1, 9) is not a point on the line
Second answer: x=2, y=-5×2 +4 = -6 . . . not -14. (2, 14) is not a point on the line
Third answer: (see the calculation for the first answer) . . . -1 ≠ 1. (1, 1) is not a point on the line
Fourth answer: (see the calculation for the second answer) We know that (2, -6) is on the given line. Checking (4, -16), we find it is as well.
The appropriate choice is the 4th answer:
... a line passing through the points (2, -6) and (4, -16)
Options 3, 5 would be the answer
