A farmer planted 0.4 of his field with corn seed, 0.25 with pumkin seed, and 0.1 with tomato seed. A) Find the portion of the fi
eld that was planted with corn or pumkin seed. explain your answer B) Use fractions to find the part of the field that was planted with pumkin and tomato seed. Show your work
So these can be translated to decimals we know that 4=4/1 so 0.4=0.4/1, to convert to nice fractions, multiply by 10/10 and get 4/10 times 10/10=40/100
then 0.25/1 times 100/100=25/100 so 0.1/1 times 10/10=1/10
a farmer planted 40/100 or 4/10 or 2/5 of his field with corn pumpkin=25/100=1/4 field with pumpkin tomato=1/10 with tomato
Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) m = (10 - 7)/(2 --1) m = 3/3 m = 1
To find the equation y = mx + b m is slope y = 1x + b plug in one of the equations to solve for b 10 = 1(2) + b 10 = 2 + b subtract 2 from both sides 8 = b
The equation is y = 1x + 8 or you can write it as y = x + 8
