To find the equation of the line, we need to figure out the slope and y-intercept.
To find the y-intercept, look at the number where the line intersects the y-axis. The number is 5. The equation so far is y = ?x + 5.
We still didn't figure out the slope yet. To figure out the slope, pick two points. Use the rise over run method. It is in the image below. The line is going up to the left, so the slope will be negative. Now we know the slope is -1/3. The equation now that we figured out the slope is y = -1/3x + 5.
I hope this helps you! Let me know if I got something wrong.
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's convert the decimals to fraction form.
0.5=5/10=1/2
-1/7
-0.2= -2/10= -1/5
1/3
We know that the bigger the number in the denominator, the smaller the fraction is if the numerators are all the same.
First off, we have the negative numbers which are smaller than the other numbers. We have -1/7 and -1/5. We know that the 1/5 is a bigger fraction, but it is negatively bigger, so that is going to be the lesser number.
-1/5, -1/7
And with our bigger ones, we have 1/3 and 1/2. 1/2 is the bigger number here, so that will be the last one. Let's also be sure to convert back to our original forms! Here is our order :
-0.2, -1/7, 1/3, 0.5
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
Answer:
1/8 :)
Step-by-step explanation:
1/8 is correct because 12.5*8=100
"you can convert the percent to a fraction or decimal. While you might need to subtract a percent from a percent when working in finance, if you are working on homework you more likely will come across problems where you need to subtract a percent from a whole number."
