The slopes of both lines are equal so they're parallel.
You have the following equation for the cost of renting a car for x number of miles driven:
y = 0.15x + 65
If you travel 70 miles, then, x = 70 and you obtain for the cost y:
y = 0.15(70) + 65
y = 10.5 + 65
y = 75.5
Hence, the cost of renting a car to drive 70 miles is $75.5
Let x = the shorter piece and Let y = the longer piece.
(3/4)x = 120
x = 120 / (3/4)
x = 120 * (4/3 = 480/3) = 160 feet
y = 160 + 12
-6b = -36
Divide by -6
B is 6
Here's how to convert 0.46 to a fraction...
There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write 0.46 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .46, means.
Since there are 2 digits in 46, the very last digit is the "100th" decimal place.
So we can just say that .46 is the same as 46/100. The fraction is not reduced to lowest terms. We can reduce this fraction to lowest
terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.
Why divide by 2? 2 is the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)
or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numbers 46 and 100.
So, this fraction reduced to lowest terms is 23/50
So your final answer is: 0.46 can be written as the fraction 23/50
