Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the negative number with the largest magnitude is farthest to the left on the number line.
3/4 = 9/12
2/3 = 8/12
Then 3/4 > 2/3, so ...
-3/4 < -2/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use proportions to solve.
Corresponding sides have same ratio.
<u>Question 1</u>
- (6x + 3)/17 = (8x - 1)/21
- 21(6x + 3) = 17(8x - 1)
- 126x + 63 = 136x - 17
- 10x = 80
- x = 8
<u>Question 2</u>
- (x + 8)/21 = 32/28
- x + 8 = 21*8/7
- x + 8 = 24
- x = 24 - 8
- x = 16
Answer: Y = 3x - 2
Work: Okay, let's take this step by step. Since the Y - Intercept is -2, put a dot on -2 on the (Y) Line. It also just so happens that the line goes through -2. Now with 3x. 3x is the same thing as 3x / 1. Since three is on the top, you go up three from -2, and then move over one spot because of the 1 (If it was a negative one, you go the opposite direction) Alright, now you see that the line also passes through that point as well, so it has to be y = 3x -2
