6 4/5+5 3/10 adding and subtracting mixed number

lawyer [7]

Too add mixed numbers, first convert them to improper fractions:

34/5 + 53/10

Next, find a common denominator, which in this case is 10.

Convert 34/5 so that it has a denominator of 10 by multiplying the ENTIRE fraction by 2: 68/10

68/10 + 53/10 = 121/10

You can either give your answer in the form of an improper fraction: 121/10, or a mixed number 12 1/10

Determine whether the relationship between the two quantities is proportional. Explain.

ira [324]

Answer:

Option B. No, because the graph of the line connecting the ordered pairs does no pass through the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line<u><em> and the line passes through the origin</em></u>

step 1

Connect the ordered pairs of the graph

The y-intercept is the point (0,20)

see the attached figure

That means, that the line not passes through the origin

therefore

The relationship between the two quantities is not proportional
