Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
Answer:
2/3<9/10; I used 3/4 as a benchmark.
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3<1/2; I used 1/2 as a benchmark.
2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667
1/2 = 0.(10/2) = 0.5
So this is wrong, as 0.667 > 0.5.
1/2=3/5; I used 1/4 as a benchmark.
1/2 = 0.(10/2) = 0.5
3/5 = 0.(30/5) = 0.6
0.5 != 0.6, so this is wrong.
2/3<9/10; I used 3/4 as a benchmark.
2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667
9/10 = 0.(90/10) = 0.9
So this is correct, as 0.667 < 0.9
3/4<2/3; I used 1/2 as a benchmark.
3/4 = 0.(30/4) = 0.75
2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667
0.75 > 0.667, so this is wrong.
I think the equation is y= 3/5x-1 1/2
Since 1/3 can't be turned into a decimal, change .5 into 1/2. In order to subtract, the fractions need a common denominator. The least common denominator is 6. So 1/3 turns into 2/6, and 1/2 turns into 3/6. Now you need to take 9 3/6 minus 6 2/6. The answer is 3 1/6 gallons of water.
