The easiest way to compare fraction is to make them all have the same denominator and then you can just compare the numerators...
-1/6, (5/3)(2/2), -5/6
-1/6, 10/6, -5/6 so from least to greatest
-5/6, -1/6, 10/6
-5/6, -1/6, 5/3
Answer:
y = (5/8)x
Step-by-step explanation:
The bottle, ideally, went through a path of a line. Because she threw it upwards in a slant manner for it to have gotten to the garbage. The equation of a line is given as:
y = mx + c
We are given the vertical height as 10ft and horizontal height as 16ft.
m = vertical height/horizontal height
m = 10ft/16ft
m = 5/8
c is the y-intercept.
Since she is standing on the ground (origin) then the y intercept is 0.
The equation becomes
y = (5/8)x
The x-intercept is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis.
At the y-axis, all points have 0 for the y-coordinate.
Let y = 0, and solve for x.
y = 2x - 10
0 = 2x - 10
10 = 2x
5 = x
x = 5
The x-intercept is 5.
Put everything on the same side of the equals sign and set it equal to zero so you can factor it.
. In order to factor that you have no choice really but to put it into the quadratic formula. When you do that you find that your zeros are x = 9.623475383 and -.623475383
It would be 6,000. if you need the work, please
just ask :)
