Answer:

The key word ''in all'' means total so this calls for addition so we need to add all fractions first to get our answer.

  • First we need to add all whole numbers
  • next we need to find the LCD of all fractions which is 4
  • next we change the denominators into the LCD (4)
  • next we join them all together so now it will be 3 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 over 4
  • since 2 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 equals 11 we simplify it to 3 + 11/4
  • now we make 11/4 to a mixed fraction which is 2 3/4
  • now we add 3 + 2 to make 5 and keep the fraction

Answer: Joanna bought 5 3/4 pounds of fruit in all.

Through :(4,2),parallel to y =-3/4x-5<br> Solve for y
alex41 [277]

Answer:

y = \frac{ - 3}{4} x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Line equation is:

y = \frac{- 3}{4} x - 5

The line equation is in the form of y = m x + c

Slop of this line is (m1) = \frac{ - 3}{4}

Let another line with slop (m2) , passes through point (4 , 2)

As per question the another line is parallel to the given line equation

So, slop of both the lines are  equal  

∴ (m2) = (m1) = \frac{ - 3}{4}

Hence equation of another line with slop \frac{ - 3}{4} and passing through points ( 4 , 2) is

y - y1 = (m2) (y - x1)

I.e  y - 2 = \frac{ - 3}{4} (x - 4)

Or,  4\times (y -2) = (- 3)\times (x - 4)

Or , 4y - 8 =  -3x + 12

Or,   4y     =  -3x + 12 + 8

Or , 4y      =  -3x + 20

∴        y = \frac{ - 3}{4} x + 5

Hence The value of y = \frac{ - 3}{4} x + 5    Answer

egoroff_w [7]
Since the communative property shows you can add or multipy in any order, this means you can add all three of these in a different order and still get the same answer.....For example, you can do $1.25 + $0.80 + $2.75 or you can switch it around and do it in another way

Noah’s remote control car moved 12 feet in 6 seconds. Which graph has a slope that best represents Noah’s car’s average rate of
vaieri [72.5K]

We want to find a graph that represents Noah's average speed.

We define the average speed as the quotient between the distance moved and the time it takes to move that distance, then in this case we will have:

s = 12ft/6s = 2ft/s

Then we can define a linear equation:

y = (2ft/s)*x

As the distance that Noah travels in x seconds.

The graph of the given linear function can be seen below, and that is the graph with the slope that best represents Noah's average speed.
