Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have an equation of the form y = mx +b then the y-intercept is b.
So now here we have y =-x - 2. Therefore b = -2 and we conclude the y-intercept is -2.
To answer this question, you need to know that a quarter is worth $0.25 and dimes worth $0.10. In this case, the total number of money that made from quarters and dimes is $2.80
With Q=quarter and D=dime, then the equation should be:
2.80= 0.25 Q + 0.10 D
The condition that needs to be fulfilled in this case is that the quarter should be 8 more than dimes. Then you need to find out the highest possible number of the quarter and lowest possible number of the dimes.
If you divide 2.8 with 0.25 you will found it will be 11.2 but 11 quarter will result with 0.05 value which you cannot remove, so the highest possible of the quarter should be 10.
If the highest possible of the quarter is 10, then the lowest possible of dimes should be:
2.8= 0.25(10) + 0.10D
0.10D= 0.3
D=3
Since 10-3 is 7, then it is not possible for the quarter to be 8 more than the dimes.
The product of two positive fractions are also less than one because you are multiplying a number which is already less than 1.
For example.
1/ 2 = is 50% of a whole.
When you multiply 1/2 by 1/2 you do not get the 100% of the whole because you are only getting 50% of the 50% of the whole, which in turn is equivalent to 25% of the whole.
1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 of the whole.
The only time you can get a result of 1 and above where two fractions are less than 1 is when you perform addition of these fractions.
1/2 + 1/2 = 1 - ALL CREDITS GO TO @TASKMASTERS!
