Answer:

(1/3 - 5/6) / 5/6

You want to make 1/3 and 5/6 have the same denominator so you multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 2 to get 2/6. You plug that back into your equation to get: (2/6 - 5/6) / 5/6. 2/6 - 5/6 is -3/6. -3/6 divided by 5/6 is -3/6 multiplied by 6/5 which is -3/5.

A town has accumulated 2 inches of snow, and the snow depth in increasing by 6 inches every hour. A nearby town has accumulated
earnstyle [38]
Town A starts with 2in and has a rate of accumulation of 6in every 1 hour
Town B starts with 9in and has a rate of accumulation of 3in every 1 hour

If X is number of hours then:

2+ 6X= 9+3X
6x-3x=9-2
3x=7
X=7/3 is about 2 hours

Which figure could be the result of dilating the trapezoid with a scale factor between 0 and 1? On a coordinate plane, a trapezo
Lena [83]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a trapezoid has points (0, 0), (0.5, 2), (1, 2), (1.5, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

If a trapezoid is dilated with a scale factor between 0 and 1, the resulting trapezoid will look smaller than the original trapezoid.

Since the figure is missing, we can examine the coordinates.

By analyzing the coordinates critically, the correct choice is :

On a coordinate plane, a trapezoid has points (0, 0), (0.5, 2), (1, 2), (1.5, 0).

Because when we compare to the original figure with coordinates:

(0, 0), (1, 4), (2, 4), (3, 0), we can see that, the coordinates of the original figure were multiplied by \frac{`1}{2} .

The scale factor is k=\frac{`1}{2} and this is between 0 and 1

A line passes through the point (-8,-7) and has a slope of 3. Write an equation for the line
fgiga [73]
Your answer is y = 3x + 24.

We already know that the first part of the equation is 3x, as the slope has been given to us. This means all we have to figure or is the y-intercept, which we can do by substituting in the coordinates we were given:

y = 3x + c
-7 = (3 × -8) + c
-7 = -24 + c
+ 24
17 = c

This gives us our y-intercept as 17, so then the final answer is y = 3x + 17.

I hope this helps!
