Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
it's kinda confusing b/c of the minus signs.. huh... but -5 is less than -2 sooo
start with
-2 1/2 - (-5 3/4 )
=5 3/4 - 2 1/2
=5 3/4 - 2 2/4
=23/4 - 10/4
=13/4
there you go... :)
if you want it back in proper fractions
3 1/4
In order to utilize the graph, first you have to distinguish which graph accurately pertains to the two functions.
This can be done by rewriting the equations in the form y = mx + b which can be graphed with ease; where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
-x^2 + y = 1
y = x^2 + 1
So this will be a basic y = x^2 parabola where the center intercepts on the y axis at (0, 1)
-x + y = 2
y = x +2
So this will be a basic y = x linear where the y intercept is on the y axis at (0, 2)
The choice which depicts these two graphs correctly is the first choice. The method to find the solutions to the system of equations by using the graph is by determining the x coordinate of the points where the two graphed equations intersect.
-5 ÷w=?
Answer the rest on your own but I just set it up for you.
Total = 2 + 4 + 10 = 16
Bubble Gums and Tootsie Roll = 2 + 10 = 12
P(Bubble Gums and Tootsie Roll) = 12/16 = 3/4
