I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>
The given equation has a slope of 
. Parallel lines have the same slope.
Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) ; where (x₁, y₁) is the point and "m" is slope
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - (-4) = (x - 2)
y + 4 = x + 
<u> - 4</u> <u> - 
</u>
y = x - <u>
</u>
Quadrent 1 because they are both positive numbers
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
3x− 12 = 2x+ 3
3x-2x-12 = 3
x = 3+12
x=15
hope this helps! :)
Answer:
3 1/20
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we will convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions...
9 3/10 (9*10=90+3=93) so the improper fraction is 93/10
5 3/4 (5*4=20+3=23) therefore the improper fraction is 23/4
We then want to make the denominator the same...
93/10 (*4) = 372/40
23/4 (*10) = 230/40
We then put it into the question...
372/40 - 230/40 = 142/40
Lastly, we now need to turn this into a mixed number...
142/40=3.55 so the answer is 3 2/40
3 2/40 in it's simplest form is 3 1/20
Hope this helps!
