1/3 is greater. Picture a pie with nothing cut into it. Then, you cut 3 equal pieces out of it, leaving no pie remaining. So, if you take 1 piece, you have 2 pieces that you didn't take. So if you do the exact same thing, but you cut <em>8 </em>pieces out of the pie and you take 1 piece, there are still 7 pieces remaining. So 1/8 is a smaller part of the pie than the 1/3, since you are cutting the pie into 8 identical pieces while with 1/3 you are cutting the same sized pie into 3 pieces. Sorry if I was confusing, just ask me if you want an easier-to-understand explanation. Also, if you pick a "brainliest" answer, it actually <em>gives </em>you points.
Answer:
x= 3 hope it helps thanks
Just add all the numbers together and then multiple it by 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
40 ounces equal 2.5 pounds (40oz = 2.5lbs). Converting 40 oz to lb is easy.
The solid line indicates that the line itself is included in the solutions. That the shaded area is to the left, or under, the line means that y≤the line.
To find the equation of the line you first find the slope or m using any two points.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) in this case you are given (2,-5) and (-2, 3) so
m=(3--5)/(-2-2)
m=8/-4
m=-2
So far for y≤mx+b we have:
y=-2x+b using either point we can solve for b, I'll use (2,-5)
-5=-2(2)+b
-5=-4+b
-1=b
So the line is:
y=-2x-1 and since y≤ the line:
y≤-2x-1
