Mikel carried the ball 4 1/2 yards. Fred carried the ball twice as far. How far did Fred carry the ball?

Mikel carried the ball 4 1/2 yards. Let’s convert this: 9/2 yards (4*2+1), and if Fred carried it twice as far, that means he carried it 2 times 9/2. We know that 9/2 (or 4.5) * 2 is 9, so he carried it 9 yards.

Answer:

-2/3 is the y intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

So to find the y-intercept you must first put this in Slope-intercept form, I believe the form it is in right now is called standard form.

To get it into slope intercept form, we have to isolate y:

subtract 2x from both sides:

-3y = -2x + 2

Divide both sides by -3:

y = (2/3)x - 2/3

Now that we have slope-intercept form, we can find the y-intercept. We know slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In this case the y-intercept is -2/3.

Hope this helps!

Which expression represents the

ki77a [65]

The expression that represents the number of reams of paper produced in the second year is 4.704 x $10^{10}$ (option d)

<h3>What is the expression that represents the reams produced in the second year. </h3>

The quantity of paper produced in the first year is written in scientific notation. Scientific notation is used to compress larger numbers into smaller numbers.

In order to write a number in scientific notation, the number is written as a decimal number, between 1 and 10 and multiplied by a power of 10.

For example, The number 5 x 10³ is equivalent to 500

Paper produced in the second year = paper produced in the first year x 5.6

(8.4 x $10^{9}$ ) x 5.6 = 47.04 x $10^{9}$
