A rational number can be written as the ratio of one integer to another and can be represented by a repeating or terminating decimal.
Answer:
Let x be the number of silver medals.
As there were two more gold medals than silver ones, gold medals are x+2
We also know that the number of bronze medals was 4 less than the sum of gold and silver, so if there are x + 2 of gold and x of silver, there are x+x+2-4 of bronze.
Now, we can do an equation, as we know there were a total of 28 medals:
x + x + 2 + x + x + 2 - 4 = 28
And we isolate x:
4x = 28
x = 28/4 = 7
There were 7 silver medals, so there were 9 gold ones (7-2) and 12 of bronze (9+7-4).
Answer:
(3,4) and (6,8).
Step-by-step explanation:
Rise is equal to y and run is equal to x. If the fraction is 4/3, y is equal to 4 and 3 is equal to x. 3 across is 3 and 4 upwards is 4. Just keep adding 3,4 to get the following points the line passes through. Since we need two points, 3,4 and 6,8 would be the appropriate answers.
The appropriate choice is ...
... On Line 3, Brianna should have divided by 0.1 instead of subtracting 0.1.
_____
Had Brianna simplified her effort properly on line 4, she would have
... -0.1 +0.1x = -1.4
putting her essentially back where she started—with a 2-step equation.
