Because this equation is in slope-intercept form, we can tell exactly how it will look by checking out 3 key points.

Leading coefficient: negative, or positive.

In this case, the leading coefficient is positive, which means that the slope will be going from bottom left to upper right.

Leading coefficient = slope

In this case, the slope is 4, or 4/1, so it will be at a steep incline.

Value of constant = y-intercept.

In this case, the y-intercept is -2, which will help us narrow down our choice.

<h3><u>After reviewing the three answer choices, the most likely selection will be A, as it seems to have a slope of 4, it is positive, and it has a y-intercept of -2.</u></h3>

Which set of numbers is arranged in order from least to greatest?
charle [14.2K]
The answer is:  [C]:  -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔ .
________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________
<span>
Note that in this correct Answer choice "C" given, we have the following arrangement of numbers:
_____________________________________________________
   </span>→ -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔ ; 
______________________________________
We are asked to find the "Answer choice" (or, perhaps, "Answer choices?") given that show a set of numbers arranged in order from "least to greatest"; that is, starting with a value that is the smallest number in the arrangement, and sequentially progressing, in order from least to greatest, with the largest (greatest) number in the arrangement appearing as the last number in the arrangement.
______________________
Note the EACH of the 4 (four) answer choices given consists of an arrangement with ONLY one negative number, "- 0.7".  Only TWO of the answer choices—Choices "B" and "C"—have an arrangement beginning with the number, "-0.7 ";  So we can "rule out" the "Answer choices: [A] and [D]".
________________________
Let us examine: Answer choice: [B]: <span>-0.7, 0.35, ⅕, ⅔ ; 
</span>_________________________
Note: The fraction, "⅕" = "2/10"; or, write as: 0.2 .
________________________________________
          The fraction, "⅔" = 0.6666667 (that is 0.6666... repeating; so we often               see a "final decimal point" rounded to "7" at some point.
___________________________________________
Through experience, one will be able to automatically look at these 2 (two) fractions and immediately know their "decimal equivalents".
____________________________________________
Otherwise, one can determine the "decimal form" of these values on a calculator by division:
_________________________
→ ⅕ = 1/5 = 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2
_________________________
→ ⅔ = 2/3 = 2 ÷ 3 = 0.6666666666666667
___________________________________
For Answer choice: [B], we have:
______________________________
→   -0.7, 0.35, ⅕, ⅔ ; 
_________________________
→ So, we can "rewrite" the arrangement of "Answer choice [B]" as:
___________________________________________
    →  -0.7, 0.35, 0.2, 0.666666667 ;
________________________________
    → And we can see that "Answer choice: [B]" is INCORRECT; because
"0.2" (that is, "⅕"), is LESS THAN "0.35".  So, "0.35" should not come BEFORE "⅕" in the arrangement that applies correctly to the problem.
_______________________________________
Let us examine: Answer choice: [C]:  -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, 0.666666667 .
____________________________________________
→ Remember from our previous— and aforementioned—examination of "Answer Choice: [B]" ; that:
____________________________ 
→ ⅕ = 0.2 ;   and:
→ ⅔ = 0.666666667
_______________________
So, given:
____________
→ Answer choice: [C]: -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔ ; 
______________________
→ We can "rewrite" this given "arrangement", substituting our known "decimal values for the fractions:
______________________________
→ Answer choice: [C]: -0.7, 0.2, 0.35, 0.666666667 ;
_________________________________________
→ As mentioned above, this sequence starts with "-0.7", which is the ONLY negative number in the sequence; as such, the next positive number is correct.  Nonetheless, "0.2" (or, "(⅕") is the next number in the sequence, and is greater than "-0.7". The next number is "0.35. "0.35" is greater than "⅕" (or, "0.2"). Then next number is "(⅔)" (or, "0.666666667").
   "(⅔)"; (or, "0.666666667") is greater than 0.35.
____________________________
This set of numbers: "-0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔" ; is arranged in order from least to greatest; which is "Answer choice: [C]: -0.7, ⅕, 0.35, ⅔" ; the correct answer.
