Answer: Choice D

b greater-than 3 and StartFraction 2 over 15 EndFraction

In other words,

b > 3 & 2/15

or

b > 3\frac{2}{15}\\\\

========================================================

Explanation:

Let's convert the mixed number 2 & 3/5 into an improper fraction.

We'll use the rule

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

In this case, a = 2, b = 3, c = 5

So,

a & b/c = (a*c + b)/c

2 & 3/5 = (2*5 + 3)/5

2 & 3/5 = (10 + 3)/5

2 & 3/5 = 13/5

The inequality 2 \frac{3}{5} < b - \frac{8}{15}\\\\ is the same as \frac{13}{5} < b - \frac{8}{15}\\\\

---------------------

Let's multiply both sides by 15 to clear out the fractions

\frac{13}{5} < b - \frac{8}{15}\\\\15*\frac{13}{5} < 15*\left(b - \frac{8}{15}\right)\\\\39 < 15b-8\\\\

---------------------

Now isolate the variable b

39 < 15b-8\\\\15b-8 > 39\\\\15b > 39+8\\\\15b > 47\\\\b > \frac{47}{15}\\\\b > \frac{45+2}{15}\\\\b > \frac{45}{15}+\frac{2}{15}\\\\b > 3+\frac{2}{15}\\\\b > 3\frac{2}{15}\\\\

Side note: Another way to go from 47/15 to 3 & 2/15 is to notice how

47/15 = 3 remainder 2

The 3 is the whole part while 2 helps form the fractional part. The denominator stays at 15 the whole time.

Please please please I'm begging you help me find the y intercept for these I will give brainliest
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

1. (2+2)/(-3+4)= 4/1= 4

y + 2 = 4(x + 4)

y + 2 = 4x + 16

y = 4x + 14 y-intercept:(0,14)

2. (0+5)/(-1+2)= 5/1= 5

y + 5 = 5(x + 1)

y + 5 = 5x + 5

y = 5x

y-intercept (0,0)

3. (-1+1)/(-5-3)= 0/-8= 0

y + 1 = 0(x - 3)

y + 1 = 0

y= -1

3(3 - 8x) - 1 = -6x - 28
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(3 - 8x) - 1 = -6x - 28

Distribute

9 -24x -1 = -6x -28

Combine like terms

8 -24x = -6x -28

Add 24x to each side

8-24x+24x = -6x-28+24x

8 = 18x-28

Add 28 to each side

8+28 = 18x-28+28

36 = 18x

Divide each side by 18

36/18 = 18x/18

2 =x
