Answer: E. 4/5

Step-by-step explanation: You have to put the decimal (0.8) over its place value. So in this case 0.8 turns into 8/10. Then you must simplify 8/10, by dividing the numerator (8) and the denominator (10) by the greatest common factor (2). Which gives you the answer 4/5.

Answer:

  d)  (-3/2, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint (M) between two given points is the average of their coordinate values:

  M = (A + B)/2 = ((-8, 1) +(5, -2))/2 = (-3, -1)/2

  M = (-3/2, -1/2) . . . . . matches choice D

Two car washes charge a basic fee plus a fee based on the number of extras that
mezya [45]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

a. The first car wash charges more for the basic fee

b. 6 extras must be chosen for the total cost to be the same

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The complete question is shown in the attached diagram

<u>The general form of the linear equation is:</u>

y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

The y-intercept represents the initial value which, in the given problem, is the basic fee

<u>For the first car wash, we are given the equation:</u>

y₁ = x + 9

<u>Now, we will start by getting the equation for the second car wash:</u>

<u>1- getting the slope:</u>

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} =\frac{12-9}{4-2}=1.5

The equation now is: y = 1.5x+c

<u>2- getting the y-intercept:</u>

To get the y-intercept, we will simply choose a point, substitute with it in the equation from 1 and solve for c. I will use point (2,9)

y = 1.5 x + c

9 = 1.5 (2) + c ............> c = 6

<u>The equation for the second car wash is:</u>

y₂ = 1.5x + 6

<u>Part 1:</u>

As mentioned above, the y-intercept represents the basic fee

<u>For the first car wash:</u>

y₁ = x + 9 ................> The basic fee is $9

<u>For the second car wash:</u>

y₂ = 1.5x + 6 ..............> The basic fee is $6

It is clear that the basic fee for the first car wash charges more for the basic fee

<u>Part 2:</u>

In both equations, x represents the number of extras. We want the total cost to be the same. So, we will simply equate y₁ and y₂ and solve for x

x + 9 = 1.5x + 6

1.5x - x = 9 - 6

0.5x = 3

x = 6

<u>Let's verify:</u>

<u>For x = 6:</u>

y₁ = x + 9 = 6 + 9 = $15

y₂ = 1.5x + 6 = 1.5(6) + 6 = $15

Total cost is the same. This means that 6 extras must be chosen for the total cost to be the same

Hope this helps :)

(y+3):(y+5)=k:1<br><br> show that y=(5k-3)/(1-k)<br><br> hence y=(5k-2)/(1-k)
luda_lava [24]

hi,

Express the ratios in fractional form, that is

= ( cross- multiply )

y + 3 = k(y + 5) ← distribute

y + 3 = ky + 5k ( subtract ky from both sides )

y - ky + 3 = 5k ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y - ky = 5k - 3 ← factor out y from each term on the left side

y(1 - k) = 5k - 3 ← divide both sides by (1 - k)

y = 5k- 3

____

1 - k
