Since 4/9 in decimal form is 0.44444
and 1/2 in decimal form is 0.5
0.4444<0.5
1/2 is greater than 4/9
Hope this helped!
Answer:
y = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
-9 - (-9) / -3 - 1
0 / -4
y = 0 + b
-9 = b
Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The desired ratio is ...
(part-time)/(total) = (part-time)/((part-time) +(full-time)) = 12/(12+18)
= 12/30 = 2/5
The ratio of part-time workers to total workers is 2 : 5.

Answer: C. (-4, -2)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
First, eliminate one of the variables and solve for the remaining variable:
2x - 5y = 2 → 3(2x - 5y = 2) → 6x - 15y = 6
3x + 2y = -16 → -2(3x + 2y = -16) → <u> -6x - 4y = 32</u>
-19y = 38
y = -2
Next, replace "y" with -2 into either of the original equations to solve for x:
2x - 5y = 2
2x - 5(-2) = 2
2x + 10 = 2
2x = -8
x = -4
x = -4, y = -2
<u>Check:</u>
Plug in the x- and y-values into the other original equation:
3x + 2y = -16
3(-4) + 2(-2) = -16
-12 + -4 = -16
-16 = -16
