Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve you need to replace the variables with their numbers.

Answer:

$\frac{41}{7} or 5\frac{6}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$9 = \frac{63}{7} \\3\frac{1}{7}=\frac{22}{7} \\9-3\frac{1}{7}=\frac{63}{7} -\frac{22}{7} =\frac{41}{7} or 5\frac{6}{7}$

aev [14]

Answer:

In descending order the function are represented as $D>F>A>B>E>C$

Step-by-step explanation:

Whether it is increasing or is the larger or smaller number it all depends on its slope.

Equation of line $y=m(x)+c$ ,and $m$ is the slope.

So we will work with the slopes of each equations and arrange them in descending order.[Greater to larger number sequence]

Slopes are $\frac{4}{3}, \frac{5}{4}, \frac{-2}{1},\frac{7}{4}, \frac{6}{5}, \frac{8}{5}$

We will equate the denominator by taking LCD of it then multiply numerator and denominator with a fix number which can bring all the denominator same.

LCD of the denominator $(1,3,4,5)=60$

Example:

$\frac{4}{3}=\frac{4\times 20}{3\times 20}= \frac{80}{60}$

Similarly we will equate all the fractions.

So the slope are $\frac{80}{60}, \frac{75}{60}, \frac{-120}{60},\frac{105}{60}, \frac{72}{60}, \frac{96}{60}$

In descending order the numbers are:

$\frac{105}{60},\frac{96}{60}, \frac{80}{60}, \frac{75}{60},\frac{72}{60},\frac{-120}{60}$

According to the option the right choice are as follows:

$D>F>A>B>E>C$
