(1/2)x+b=y because the equation that given the slope is 1/2 if you leave y alone and take the x’s number
put the point now , 4+b=3 so b is -1
the equation is (1/2)x-1=y
1/4, 8/15, 6/5
One way to figure this out is to divide the fractions and find which number is bigger
Or you should know 1/4= .25 , 8/15 is around half or .5 and 6/5 the numerator is larger than the denominator, so it would be bigger than 1 <span />
In order to determine 1/11 as a decimal you need to divide 1 by 11. This would equal 0.0909090909090909. Rounding this number to three decimal places would equal 0.091.
The slope is the rate
words per minute
we can do
540 words in 3 minutes
divide by 3
180 words in 1 minute
thea=180wpm
elanor=225wpm
elanor>thea
and 225*2=450
answers are
Thea reads 180 words per minute.
Eleanor reads 450 words every 2 minutes.
After 1 hour of reading, Eleanor reads more words than Thea.
You are adding two each time
