To evaluate two fractions being divided, you must turn the right fraction into a reciprocal. That means you must put the bottom number at the top and then put the top number on the bottom (you’re basically switching them).
8/13 / 3/2
Now, once you turned the other number into a reciprocal, you multiply across. The top number times the other top number and do this to the bottom numbers, too.
8/13 * 3/2 = 24/26
You found the answer, 24/26. But as you can see, it’s not one of the choices. That’s because you need to simplify.
24/26 / 2/2 = 12/13
12/13 is your answer, or choice C!

Answer:
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
Step-by-step explanation:
if you have two points from the graph then you can use them to find the slope, for example:
(2,3) and (0,5)
you would take the first point and put it in a fraction (and the second point) but the x goes on the bottom and the y goes on the top:
3/2 and 5/0
Next you put them together minusing one of the equations, but make sure that the two coordinates line up (it doesn't matter which one, in the order):
3-5/2-0
Then you solve:
-2/2
-1
which means that -1 is the slope for this
(the "/" is a fraction bar, in case you didn't already know that)
Finding the sol'n to f(x) - g(x) = 0 is the same as finding the solution of f(x)=g(x). You could do this analytically by setting the actual function f(x) = g(x) and solving for x (and then for y), or you could estimate the solution from the given graph. The two lines intersect at approx. x=-3.75, y=2.5.
Suppose y varies inversely with x and that y=2 when x=8 What is an equation for this inverse variation?
B. y= 2/8x
By translating a shape, you are basically moving it around the graph. For example, one of the points of your shape could be on the origin (0,0). You could then translate it 4 units up and 6 units to the left. You would write this translation as (x-6, y+4). If you were starting at (0,0) your point translation would be at (-6, 4), but if you were to translate a point at (1, 1) your translated point would be at (-5, 5).
