2/9 is less than 2/5 because since the denominator is larger, the pieces are smaller. (Numerator)
NISA [10]3 years ago

Answer: D. 2/9 - the reason I knew this was smaller was because the numerator(number in the top part of the fraction) stayed the same, but the denominator increased meaning we are dividing the same amount by a larger number of divisions. This means that it will be a smaller fraction.  


Why do none of the other answer choices fit? Well, either the numerator increased or both the numerator and denominator increased by a margin that made the final fraction larger than the original 2/5.

Any questions?

A line passes through the points (8,-1) and (-4,2). What is the y intercept of the line ?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

"Y intercept is1 "

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is (-1 - 2)/[8 - (-4)] = -3/12 = -(1/4)

(-1/4) = (y - 2)/(x + 4) => -x - 4 = 4y - 8

-x + 4 = 4y

y = (-1/4)x + 1 so that the y-intercept is 1

If /is an explanatory variable and m is the corresponding response variable, which of these would be represented by the horizont
kvv77 [185]

Answer: The explanatory variable goes in the horizontal axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanatory variable is the variable that can be manipulated in an experiment. This is also called (and more commonly) the independent variable. This is the variable we usually "input" in a system, with the objective of observing the change in the response variable (also called the dependent variable, because it depends on the independent variable).

Usually, we write the explanatory variable on the horizontal axis and the response variable on the y-axis.

Then the correct answer would be C: /.

This is only because m is defined ONLY as a response variable, there are a lot of experiments with two variables, where we can use each of the variables as the explanatory variable.

And also there are some cases where in order to make the graph easier to read, we do not use the explanatory variable in the horizontal axis, instead, we may use some transformation or something alike, but those are really special cases.
