For 5-3/12 the equivalent expression is 60/12-3/12 And then for 1-4/9 the equivalent expression 9/9-4/9
The x-intercept is 8 because it passes through the horizontal line (x) at point 8.
The y-intercept is -4 because it passes through the vertical line a (y) at point -4.
The correct answer is B.
Hope this helps!
I don't know if I understand the question but I think it is 15
Long Piece: x + 18
Short Piece: x
(x) + (x + 18) = 84
2x + 18 = 84
2x = 66
x = 33
Long Piece: x + 18 = (33) + 18 = 51
