What is the quotient of 2 1/4 and 5/8?

1 answer:

8 0

It's simple math, but if you don't understand, we can help. To begin with, you must first convert 2 1/4 to an improper fraction. You'd be left with 9/4 after the conversion. Write out 9/4 ÷ 5/8. After doing so, find the reciprocal of 5/8 (switch the numerator and the denominator). Now, write out the question as 9/4 × 8/5. Multiply straight across, as you do not need common denominators when multiplying or dividing fractions. Your final answer should be 72/20. When simplified, you should get 3 2/20, or when simplified to the smallest amount, 3 1/10. Hope I was clear enough to help! :)

Hello can u please help

y = mx + b

-3 = -2(-5) + b

-3 = 10 + b

-13 = b

y = -2m - 13

The line would pass through -13 on the y-axis and it would go down 2 and move to the right 1 for every new point.

Hope this helps! ;)

write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and given slope, (-5,-3);slope =-3/5

arsen [322]

Answer:

y= $\frac{-3}{5}x-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the point (-5, -3), and a slope of -3/5

We want to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately plug it into the equation

y= $\frac{-3}{5}x$ +b

We need to find b, though

We can use (-5, -3) to help us, as the equation will pass through that line

Substitute the value of x as -5 and the value of y as -3 to solve for b

-3= $\frac{-3}{5}*-5+b$

Now, on the right, multiply -3/5 and 5 together

-3=3+b

Subtract 3 from both sides

-6=b

Substitute 6 as b in the equation

y= $\frac{-3}{5}x$ -6

Hope this helps!
