Hey!
To divide fractions, you have to keep, change, flip.
Keep 3 1/2(7/2)
Change ÷ to ×
Flip 2 1/4(9/4) = 4/9
Now multiply the improper fractions
<em>The 1st choice matches the answer. The answer is the 1st choice.</em>
Good luck and hope this helps! :)
Answer:
none of the above
Step-by-step explanation:
You can try the points in the equations (none works in any equation), or you can plot the points and lines (see attached). <em>You will not find any of the offered answer choices goes through the given points</em>.
___
You can start with the 2-point form of the equation of a line. For points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) that equation is ...
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)·(x -x1) +y1
Filling in the given points, we get ...
y = (3 -1)/(2 -4)·(x -4) +1
y = 2/(-2)(x -4) +1 . . . . . simplify a bit
y = -x +4 +1 . . . . . . . . . simplify more
y = -x +5 . . . . . . . . . . . slope-intercept form
