The no's are
x + y = 3 \\ 5x + 4y = 29 \\ y =  - 14 \\ x = 17

Let's have two numbers x (larger) and y (smaller). from the info above...

x + y = 3
5x + 4y = 29

so that means y=3 - x. we can sub this in
5x + 4(3-x) = 29
5x + 12 - 4x = 29
x = 17
then y=3-x=3-17=-14

so it's 17 and -14

Looking at the data it looks like a line. So the answer will be in y+mx+b format.

Knowing it is a line eliminates answers b and c.
looking at options a is says it starts at about .1 when x is zero. We can see this looks pretty close as the left-most dot is below 1 already.

The slope on a is 1/2--> increasing 1 vertically for every 2 horizontally. The pattern mostly follows that rule.

Therefore a (y=1/2x+.1) would be the correct answer

Put 3/8, 2/5, and 0.38 from least to greatest
Vesnalui [34]
3/8=0.375
2/5=0.4
0.38=0.38

0.375<0.38<0.4

therefore: 3/8,0.38,2/5

*Remember that you can convert fractions to decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator! This makes it much easier to compare :)

The distributive property states the following:
</span><span>a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c
</span>Multiplying <span>a sum by a number is the same as </span>multiplying<span> each addend by the number and then adding the products. </span>
In our case, a=4 b+c=7, b=3, c=4
