Divide
7/12 = <span>.583
We get answer: </span><span>D. .583</span>
Increasing the value of a would change the slope of the function specifically it would increase as well. Therefore, the line would be steeper than the original. The term ab represents the slope of the function and changing either one would result to the change of the steepness of the line.
I like to start by turning all my numbers into the same form. You can go either way but I am going to turn the decimals into fractions. so 0.7 is the same as 7/10.
0.755 is like 755/1000 which can be reduced to 151/200 (if you don't understand the convertions let me know i will explaine more.)
Next give all the fractions a common denominator. both 8 and 10 go into 200 so we can use that. 151/200 already has a denominator of 200 so that one is set.
for 7/10 well, 10 time 20 is 200 so multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 20 so you get 140/200
the last one is 5/8 8 times 25 is 200 so multiply both numbers by 25 to get 125/200
the fractionos we have are 125/200 151/200 and 140/200. Now because they all have the same denominator the one with the lowest numerator is the least number and the one with the highest number is the greatest number.
125/200 140/200 151/200 now just replace the original number with the order they are placed in.
125/200 was 5/8
140/200 was 0.7
151/200 was 0.755
so the final answer is
5/8, 0.7, 0.755
To answer, determine the amount of paint that is needed in order to cover the whole of the sign. If we use the ratio and proportion and letting x be the unknown amount. The equation would be,
1/2 / 1/3 = x / 1
The value of x from the equation is equal to 1.5. Thus, the answer is letter D. 3/2 cups.
