Answer:

A. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The circles are concentric. I.e there is no point where the circumferences of both circles ever touch each other. Hence there can be no tangent line possible that can be common to both circles at the same time.

Method 1
----------------------------------------------------------------
Since the numerators are the same, the smaller the denominators, the greater the fraction is.

Arranging from the least to the greatest
$\dfrac{2}{6} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{4} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{3}$

----------------------------------------------------------------
Method 2
----------------------------------------------------------------
Lets change all to the same denominators

$\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{2 \times 3}{4 \times 3} = \dfrac{6}{12}$

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4} = \dfrac{8}{12}$

$\dfrac{2}{6} = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{6 \times 2} = \dfrac{4}{12}$

Now that all the denominators are the same, we can arrange the fractions by comparing the numerators. The bigger the numerators, the greater the fraction.

Arranging from the least to the greatest
$\dfrac{2}{6} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{4} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{3}$

Does the point (0, 0) satisfy the equation y = 9x?

miskamm [114]

Answer:

yes it does

Step-by-step explanation:

because the equation y=9x does not have a y-intercept (all slopes come in the form y=mx+b -- it can be written differently though) and since there is no 'b' that means the y-intercept is 0. So whenever there is no y-intercept, the slope starts at 0.
