You'll want to make a common denominator with 6 and 8.
That denominator would be 24.
24/6=4 so you would have to multiply 5/6 by 4/4 to get 20/24.
Next, 24/8=3 so 1/8 could be multiplied by 3/3 to get 3/24.
Since 3 is less than 20, 1/8 is smaller than 5/6.
If you want the same numerator, 5/8 = 15/24. This would make 5/8 smaller than 5/6 as well.
The highest eighth you can go is 6/8 which is 18/24.
So you can use any numerator between 1 and 6 with a denominator of 8 to get a fraction smaller than 5/6.
Slope: 7 given point: (1,8)
y = 7x + b step 1 - plug in the slope in the formula
8 = 7(1) + b step 2 - plug in the given point
8 = 7 + b step 3 - simplify the expression
b = 1 step 4 - solve for b
y = 7x + 1 step 5 - plug in b
formula: y = 7x + 1
I need more to answer that can you maybe zoom out
First, we determine that the given equation in this item
is a linear equation. Thus, it should be a straight line. With this, we are
left with the third and fourth choice. Then, we substitute the given data
points to the equation and see if the points satisfy the given.
Choice 3:
<span> (1,3) :
(-5)(1) + (2)(3) = 1 TRUE</span>
<span> (3,8) :
(-5)(3) + 2(8) = 1 TRUE</span>
<span> (-3,-7)
: (-5)(-3) + (2)(-7) = 1 TRUE</span>
Choice 4:
<span> (4,-3) :
(-5)(4) + (2)(-3) ≠ 1 FALSE</span>
<span> (-1,2) : (-5)(-1) + (2)(2) ≠ 1 FALSE</span>
<span> (-4,5) : (-5)(-4) + (2)(5) ≠ 1 FALSE</span>
<span>Thus, the answer is the third choice.</span>
See attached picture for the answer:
you don't say how to round the answer so I did not round it.
