The slope would be 2/3 because that would leave pounds when multiplied by cups.

add 0.5 for the weight of the water jug

y = (2/3)x + 0.5

A day of the week is randomly chosen. What is the probability of choosing Monday or a day that starts with the letter S?

olga2289 [7]

There are two days of the week that start with S. That's already 2/7. But, we add on Monday and that gives us 3/7

The probability of the day being chosen as Monday or Saturday or Sunday is 3/7.

Which has the least result? A. 3/4-3/4 B. 3/4+3/4 C. -3/4 + 3/4 D. -3/4-3/4?

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to both A and C would total to about 0. Also, in B both numbers are positives, so that would also be out of the case. If you are looking for the least value, the answer would be D since -3/4 -3/4 would equal -1.5, (or -1 1/2). Therefore, your answer would be D.

Hope that helps :D

Answer:

$x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross-multiply to simplify:

$\frac{x}{12}=\frac{3}{9},\\9x=12\cdot 3,\\9x=36$

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate $x$ :

$x=\frac{36}{9}=\boxed{4}$
