500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • There are 4000 sheets of paper
  • There are 8 reams

We need to find the ratio between the sheets of paper to the reams in simplest form

∵ The number of the sheets is 4000

∵ The number of the reams is 8

→ sheet  :  ream

→ 4000  :  8

to simplify the ratio divide the two terms by the same number

∵ 4000 ÷ 2 = 2000 and 8 ÷ 2 = 4

∵ 2000 ÷ 2 = 1000 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2

∵ 1000 ÷ 2 = 500 and 2 ÷ 2 = 1

∴ 4000 and 8 can be divided by 8 to get the simplest form

   of the ratio

→ sheet        :  ream

→ 4000 ÷ 8  :  8 ÷ 8

→ 500           :  1

∴ The ratio of sheets to reams is 500 : 1

500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form

What is an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the points (−2, −2) and (1, 7)? A.y = 4x + 3 B.y − 7
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

C.y = 3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points, so we can find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (7--2)/ (1--2)

   = (7+2)/(1+2)

    = 9/3

    =3

The slope is 3

We can find the point slope form of the line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-7 = 3(x-1)

Distribute

y-7 =3x-3

Add 7 to each side

y-7+7 = 3x-3+7

y = 3x+4

This is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b)

Round 3,942,588 to the nearest thousand.
olchik [2.2K]
Hey there! :D

3,942,588

The thousandths is where the 2 is. 

If the number behind the 2 is 5 or greater, we round up to 3.

It is, so round up:

3,943,000 <== rounded number

I hope this helps!

Your equation is presented in by the following formula of y = mx + b


m = slope, it is the coefficient of X


y = 4/5 X - 3


m = 4/5
