a. you would do 1346/1500 to get 0.8973333333333. i you want to check that you can do 1346/0.8973333333333 and you would get 1500. I'm just going to round 0.8973333333333 down to 0.897. So for town B you would also do 1546/1800 which brings you to 0.858889 you can again do 1546/0.858889 but i found that 0.8588888888 gives you the most accurate answer. so rounding that down to 0.859
b. you can see that 0.897 is a larger percent that 0.859 so town a had a larger increase than b
1/4 time 1/4 equals a half...or you can think about it as 25 plus 25 equals 50, (1/2 of a dollar)
Okay, so the equation for the y-intercept is y=mx+b, this will be your base for graphing anything.
For y = x + 3 it's basically y = 1x + 3. Use b as the y-intercept, or 3, and plot it as (x,y), (0,3). Then use m as the slope, or 1. 1 means positive one so the point goes (0,3), (1, 4), (2, 5).
For y = -3x - 1 it's the same thing but different numbers. Use b, the y-intercept, and plot it. -1 is b, so plot (0,-1). Then use the slope to go up or down the direction you need to go, or m. m is -3, so for every +1 in x, the y will decrease by 3. (0,-1), (0,-4), (0,-7).
I hope this helped in some way or increased your understanding!
Answer:
9 OR 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x
x² - 10x = -9
x² - 10x + 9=0
a=1
b=-10
c=9
Solve using the quadratic formula
x =9 or 1
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Becky already ran 23 miles, and there is 1 mile per track practice, you add the 19 and 23 to get your answer.
