Answer:

Our actual answer is 1/18 greater than our estimate

1/2 < 5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 is close to 1/2

8/9 is close to 1

1/2 * 1 = 1/2

Our estimate is 1/2

Actual answer

5/8 *8/9

Rewriting

5/9 * 8/8

5/9

How close

5/9 - 1/2

Getting a common denominator

5/9*2/2 - 1/8 *9/9

10/18 - 9/18

1/18

Our actual answer is 1/18 greater than our estimate

I need help finding the slope
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

slope = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, I chose two points where the line intersected the graph at an exact point.

Points:

(0, -8)

(4, -7)

Slope is the measure of rise over run, so starting at (0, -8) I went up one and to the right 4 times.

To put this as a fraction, we would have: 1/4

The numerator and denominator are positive because we went up and to the right.

Therefore, the slope is 1/4.
