Answer:

First quadrant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadrants:

In the first quadrant, both x and y are positive, that is, x > 0, y > 0.

In the second quadrant, x is negative while y is positive, that is, x < 0, y > 0.

In the third quadrant, both x and y are negative, that is, x < 0, y < 0

In the fourth quadrant, x is positive while y is negative, that is, x > 0, y < 0

In this question:

Both the height of a building, which is x, and the number of rooms in the building, which is x, have to be positive numbers, and thus, the point (x,y) lies on the first quadrant.

Kyle drew three line segments with lengths: 2/4 inch 2/3inch, and 2/6 inch list the fractions in order from least to greatest

Sati [7]

----------------------------------------------------------------
Method 1
----------------------------------------------------------------
Since the numerators are the same, the smaller the denominators, the greater the fraction is.

Arranging from the least to the greatest
$\dfrac{2}{6} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{4} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{3}$

----------------------------------------------------------------
Method 2
----------------------------------------------------------------
Lets change all to the same denominators

$\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{2 \times 3}{4 \times 3} = \dfrac{6}{12}$

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4} = \dfrac{8}{12}$

$\dfrac{2}{6} = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{6 \times 2} = \dfrac{4}{12}$

Now that all the denominators are the same, we can arrange the fractions by comparing the numerators. The bigger the numerators, the greater the fraction.

Arranging from the least to the greatest
$\dfrac{2}{6} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{4} \ , \ \dfrac{2}{3}$

How can I solve 4x-2>3x+5

cluponka [151]

You would move over the -2 making the equation look like this 4x>3x+7. Then move the 3x to the other side of the equation making it look like this 1x>7. Thus the answer is x>7.

Answer: Deshi will have 302 marbles and Elaheh will have 519.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deshi's Marbles will subtract 125.

427 - 125 = 302.

Elaheh's Marbles will add 125.

394 + 125= 519.
