Estimate the difference: 3 2/5 - 5/8

Mathematics
1 answer:
svet-max [94.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation: Half of 5 is 2.5 so 3 2/5 will be estimated to a 3 1/2 and 5/8 is very close to 4 which is half of 8. so 5/8 will be estimated to 1/2! Both of them subtracted is gonna be 3 because 1/2 - 1/2 is 0!

Have a great day!

Bryan's puppy has been gaining weight for the last year. The graph shows data about the puppy's weight over time.

I would say 25 pounds because the graph displays a proportional relationship( a straight line) so the next point in the line would be 25 pounds.
I hope this helped! :-)

What is the y-intercept in the equation y = 4x - 3?
anyanavicka [17]

answer: -3

remember the equation y = mx + b

m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept

so in the equation y = 4x - 3,

4 replaces the m as the slope and -3 replaces b for the y-intercept

so -3 is your answer

Fantom [35]
Well, as a fraction, it would be 13/5 because 4 friends + him = 5. 13/5=2.6.
2.6 also equals 3/5. So the answer is 2.6 or 2 3/5.
Hope it helped
