Divide by 2 and find out.

4/9 / 2

Multiply by its reciprocal:

4/9 * 1/2

Multiply the numerators and denominators together:

4/18

4/18 does not equal 8/18, so 4/9 isn't half of 8/18.

The value of 7y–2 is 10 more than the value of 2y

const2013 [10]

Answer:

y=12/5 (in decimal notation y=2.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

the value of 7y-2 = 10 more than 2y

7y-2 = 10+2y

7y-2y = 10+2

5y = 12

y = 12/5

y = 2.4

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

fiasKO [112]

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's pick two points on the line: $P_1(-4, 1)$ and $P_2(2, -2).$ Let's calculate the slope of this line using these points:

$m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \dfrac{-2 - 1}{2 - (-4)} = -\dfrac{1}{2}$

With this value of the slope, we can write the general slope-intercept form of the equation as

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x + b$

To solve for the y-intercept b, let's use either P1 or P2. I'm going to use P2:

$-2 = -\frac{1}{2}(2) + b \Rightarrow b = -1$

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation is

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 1$
