Answer:
farmers market sold 4/9 plums in bushel
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that at the beginning of the day we have 7/9 of a bushel of plums and that after a while there are 1/3 of a bushel of plums, so to calculate how many were sold we have to subtract the bushel of plums that were left from the initial ones
7/9 - 1/3
if we want to do this subtraction we have to find a fraction equivalent to 1/3 that can be subtracted from 7/9
1/3 = (1 * 3) / (3 * 3) = 3/9
now we are just the top and leave the denominator the same as before
7/9 - 3/9 = 4/9
To isolate the variable you would divide both sides of the equation by 3, resulting in the equation to answer c = 4/3 or c = 1.3

Add
Divide
Divide both sides by 26
15 = h
The answer is 15km
Hope this helps!
Y=mx+b where m=slope which is change in y divided by change in x m=(-8-7)/(4-9)=-15/-5=3 so we have y=3x+b now we can use either point, I'll use (9,7), to solve for b or the y-intercept... 7=3(9)+b 7=27+b b=-20so our line is: y=3x-20
