Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
We first write the fractions in their decimal forms and find out the ratio.
2 1/4 is equivalent to 2.25, and 1 1/3 is equivalent to 1.33
Ratio will be 2.25 / 1.33 = 1.69 or 1.7 rounded off. Since it cannot be simplified further, then the ratio of mulch to gravel will be 1.7: 1
Quantity of mulch sold → 1.7/2.7 of 172 →0.629 ×172 = 108.2 pounds
Quantity of gravel sold will be 172 -108. 2 = 63 .8 pounds
Answer:
<em>y = -3x + 2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph, you see the line intersects the y-axis at y = 2, so the y-intercept is b = 2.
Now we need the slope. We need to find the number of vertical and horizontal units to go from one point to the other. Starting at point (-1, 5), go down 6 units and then go right 2 units. The change in y is -6. The change in x is 2. slope = m = (change in y)/(change in x) = -6/2 = -3.
m = -3; b = 2
y = mx + b
y = -3x + 2
