Here: Fraction = 3/5
Let, original fraction (before simplifying) = 3x/5x
Then, 3x + 5x = 40
8x = 40
x = 40/8
x = 5
So, 3x = 3(5) = 15 & 5(5) = 25
In short, Your Answer would be 15/25
Hope this helps!
The y intercept is seven so you would start by placing a point on (0,7). Then you count Down four points because the slope is a negative number and then count nine points to the right. You would have to keep counting down four points and the right nine points until your line was long enough.
To answer this question you will find the means and the mean absolute deviations and compare them.
The correct answers are

Surprise! It turns out that the answer is 1.
Why?!!??!
Notice this pattern when working with powers of 2:
2^0 2^1 2^2 2^3 2^4
? 2 4 8 16
Every time we increase the power we multiply by 2. Or reading the pattern backwards, every time we decrease the power we divide by 2. What is 2 divided by 2? It is 1! So 2^0 = 1 to finish the pattern:
2^0 2^1 2^2 2^3 2^4
1 2 4 8 16
Try it with 3 or with 5 or with any number! You'll see that the pattern holds!
