A is the answer.

Katie is starting with 23 ½ inches of ribbon and removing an unspecified amount, resulting in 8 ¼ inches left. When you remove one thing from a second thing, you are subtracting the first thing from the second. The equation then equals the amount that you have leftover.

I hope this helped!

There are 40 grams of sugar in a 12 oz can of Dr Pepper. If your max intake of sugar permitted for the day is 25 grams, how much
Zarrin [17]

To answer this question, we can set up a proportion:

\frac{40g}{12oz} =\frac{25g}{x}

Then we cross multiply and solve for x:

40x=300

x=7.5oz

So you can drink 7.5 oz of the Dr. Pepper in one day.

The graph of linear function f passes through the point (1, -9) and has a slope of -3. What is the zero of f ?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line is y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Given

Slope = -3

Get the intercept c;

Substitute m = -3 and (1, -9) into y = mx+c

-9 = -3(1) + c

-9  = -3 + c

c = -9 + 3

c = -6

The equation becomes

y = -3x + (-6)

y = -3x-6

f(x) = -3x-6

The zero of f occurs at f(x) = 0

0 = -3x-6

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Hence the zero of the function is -2

First basically solve.
Next, take the number after the decimal point and see if it's larger than 5 or lesser than 4.
Than, Look at the number before the decimal point and relate back to step 2 (Next) if the number is higher than one. Add by 1 to the number before the decimal.
Example:
4.45
vvvv

4.(4)5 > The 4 is lesser than 4, so the number before the decimal point is keep the same.
