Answer:

(a) \frac{4}{5} > \frac{1}{2}

(b) \frac{1}{3} < \frac{1}{2}

(c) Suki rode her bike a longer distance than Clarie

Step-by-step explanation:

Suki's distance is 4/5 miles

Now compare with bechmark 1/2

compare \frac{4}{5} and \frac{1}{2}

To compare , we make the denominators same

\frac{4*2}{5*2} ----- \frac{1*5}{2*5}

\frac{8}{10} ----- \frac{5}{10}

8/10 is greater than 5/10

\frac{8}{10} > \frac{5}{10}

Clarie distance is 1/3 miles

Now compare with bechmark 1/2

compare \frac{1}{3} and \frac{1}{2}

To compare , we make the denominators same

\frac{1*2}{3*2} ----- \frac{1*3}{2*3}

\frac{2}{6} ----- \frac{3}{6}

2/6 is less than 3/6

\frac{2}{6} < \frac{3}{6}

Now we compare Suki's distance with Clarie

compare \frac{4}{5} and \frac{1}{3}

Make the denominators same

\frac{4*3}{5*3} and \frac{1*5}{3*5}

\frac{12}{15} and \frac{5}{15}

\frac{12}{15} > \frac{5}{15}

Suki rode her bike a longer distance than Clarie

X - 2y = -3<br> 2x + y = -1
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

y = 1

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 2y = -3, then x = 2y - 3

2x + y = -1

substitute for x:

2(2y - 3) + y = -1

4y - 6 + y = -1

5y = 5

y = 1

x = 2 - 3 = -1
