Answer:
the answer is A)
Step-by-step explanation:
To make this easier, you need to change the fractions by multiplication.
-3/4x=15 - First, you multiply 4 to both sides of the equation
(4)-3/4x=15(4)
-12/4x=60 - Simplify
-3x=60 - Divide by -3 on both sides
x=-20 -> (-20,0)
Do the same to find the y-intercept, to get (0,18)
When you are adding a negative number you subtract it. The equation can be rewritten as:
45.23-7.89=37.34
When subtracting numbers with decimals, think of it like subtracting whole numbers but with a decimal point.
45.23
- 7.89
37.43
Your answer is 37.43.
The probability of the black puppy chosen would be 1 in 4.
The first term is a = 72
The common ratio is r = 1/6.
We multiply each term by 1/6, which is the same as dividing each term by 6.
To find r, divide any term you want over the previous term
r = 12/72 = 1/6
r = 2/12 = 1/6
etc.
Now use the infinite sum formula to find S
S = infinite sum
S = a/(1-r) ... see note below
S = 72/(1-1/6)
S = 72/(6/6 - 1/6)
S = 72/(5/6)
S = (72/1) divided by (5/6)
S = (72/1)*(6/5)
S = (72*6)/(1*5)
S = 432/5
S = 86.4
Answer: 86.4
note: this infinite sum formula only works if -1 < r < 1. In the case of r = 1/6 = 0.167 (approx), this r value is between -1 and 1.
