4 3/4 - 2 3/8 thanks

Answer:

2 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the LCM (Least Common Multiple) for the denominators so we can subtract them.  The denominators would both be 8 because it is the lowest number that they can have to be able to subtract.  (The LCM).  So is 4 3/4 has a denominator of 8 it'll become:

4 3/4= 4 6/8 because if 4 turned into 8, that means it multiplied by 2.  So, you need to multiply 3 by 2 as well which equals 6.  This is it as a ratio:

3:4 into x:8    

So 4 times 2, which means you need to do 3 times 2 as well.  It equals 6.

So now that we know 4 3/4 is 4 6/8, it is time to subtract.  2 3/8 already has a denominator of 8 so we don't need to do anything with that.  Subtract.

4 6/8-2 3/8= 2 3/8.  4-2=2, so the whole number is 2.  6-3= 3, so the numerator (the top number) is 3.  The denominator (the bottom number) always stays the same so it is the same, which is 8.

Complete the equation of the graphed linear function in point-slope form.
vazorg [7]
The point-slope form:
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
m - slope
x₁, y₁ - the coordinates of a point

It passes through the points (1,-2) and (2,2).
(1,-2) \\&#10;x_1=1 \\ y_1=-2 \\ \\&#10;(2,2) \\&#10;x_2=2 \\ y_2=2 \\ \\&#10;m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{2-(-2)}{2-1}=\frac{2+2}{1}=4

\boxed{y-(-2)=4(x-1)}
