Answer:
I believe this is right. Answer: 6/7
Step-by-step explanation:
5+1 = 6
The denominator stays the same.
ASSUMING This is a straight line so we gotta the formula for a straight line which is y=mx+b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept.
First, we know this line passes through (5,8) and (9,2) we can use these for finding the equations. When we know two points, we use this formula:
y-y=m(x-x)
The first y is 8 and the second one is 2
The first x is 5 and the second one is 9
Plug it in:
8-2=m(5-9)
6=m(-4)
6/-4=m <— simplify this
m= -3/2
*NOTE: another way to find m is by calculating it (y-y)/(x-x)
Now we know m, we have to find b.
All you gotta do is plug everything you know back into the equation y=mx+b
y=mx+b
y=-3/2x+b <— now plug in a point we know(x,y)
8=-3/2(5)+b
8=-15/2+b
8-(-15/2)=b
b=8+15/2
b=16/2+15/2
b=31/2 (now you can write be as a fraction or a decimal in your equation, depending on what your teacher told you to use)
*NOTE: it is best to use fractions instead of decimals as it is more accurate sometimes.
Now we know all the variables that need to be known, we just need to rewrite the formula of the equation so the teacher can see.
m=-3/2
b=31/2
We don’t need to plug in x or y since it could have different values (since a straight line has MANY co-ordinates)
SO OUR EQUATION IS=
y=(-3/2)x+31/2
Hope you understand this, feel free to ask me anything!
Answer:
2
5
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given 2 fractional numbers:
We have to use fraction strips to compare to the fractional numbers.
Let we are Comparing 
with the length of 
number of 
sections.
i.e.
Let we are Comparing 
with the length of 
number of 
sections.
i.e.
Now, let us have a look at 3rd part of question:
The sections of 2/4 is _____ the length of 5/8. Therefore, 2/4 < 5/8
Let the answer be

Answer:
$27.59
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply 30 dollars by 0.85 (1-0.15, with the 0.15 being for the 15 percent off). Which gets you to $25.50, and you then multiply it by 1.082 (the 1.082 being the tax, and the .082 part equating to the 8.2% tax percentage).
