O.4=2/5
2/5+2/5=4/5
1/5=72
So, 72×5 (5 is the whole) =360 stickers in all.

Paula had 360 stickers in the beginning.

I hope this helps!

So Paula sold 2/5 of her tickets initially. Of the "remaining" tickets (remainder is the key word here) she gave 2/5 to her friend. So this means after selling her tickets she had 3/5 left, which she further divided by giving her friend 2/5 of the remaining 3/5. (Hope I'm making sense so far) so what that means is, you need to figure out how many tickets were given to her friend by dividing 72/3 equaling 24. This tells you what value every 1/5 of tickets she gave her friend are. So you multiply 24•5 (the whole) giving you a product of 120. 120 is how many tickets she had left after selling. Now you divide 120/3 (the tickets not sold) giving you a quotient of 40. 40 represents the value of 1/5 tickets, so to find the original sum of tickets you would multiply 40•5 equaling to 200 tickets in total. Hope that drawn out explanation made sense!

What is the y-intercept of the function, represented by the table of values below? x: -2,1,2,4,7 y: 14,8,6,2,-4
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The y-intercept is at y = 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

It will be between y = 14 and y = 7 because the corresponding x values are -2 and 1.

An increase of 3 units of x  gives a decrease of 6 units of y fro the above values.

Then an increase of 1 ( 1 to 2) in x gives decrease in y of 2 (8 to 6). The other values show the same pattern.

So very unit increase in x,  the y values change by -2.

So  from x = -2 to 0 is +2 units for x and this will be -4 units for y  so the y-intercept ( when x = 0) will be at y = 14-4 = 10

y-intercept  is (0,10).
