Explain why 2/3 x 12 can be written as 2 x 12 divided by 3.
2 answers:
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
× 12 can also be written as
because the 12 is multiplying the numerator of the fraction.
12 can also be written as .
When we solve, this is what is happening:
×
The 12 will be multiplying the 2, while the 1 will be multiplying the 3. Because 3 times 1 is 3, we don't show the 1. So, that can leave us with 2 being multiplied by 12 in the numerator.

Answer:
y = 1/40x + 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept equation format:
y = mx + b
m = slope/ gradient/ constant of variation/ rate of change
b = y-intercept
To find the slope, use the formula:
Find two random points:
1 - (0.5, 40) , 2 - (1, 60)
Plug in:
Solve:
Divide:
The y-intercept is when the x-coordinate is equal to 0.
The y-intercept is always the beginning.
So observing the graph, the first point is (0, 20)
The x-coordinate is 0.
Y intercept = 20.
Plug in both slope and y-intercept:
y = 1/40x + 20
