That is basically splitting the sentence so that it’s easier for you to solve it. It’s basically the same thing
find unit rate:
36 / 6 = 6
she can ride 6 miles in 1 hour
Answer:
x= -2 and y= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
since x = 2y -8, substitute this in the first equation
Thus, -3(2y-8) + 2y =12
-6y+24+2y=12
-6y+2y=12-24
-4y=-12
y=3
put the value of y in the second equation,
x=2y-8
x=2(3)-8
x=6-8
x=-2
So, x=-2. y=3
Because none of the points on the number line are above 0, we know that the points will be negative.
This eliminates the second and third choices, as they contain positive numbers.
The first point, A, is a number less than -0.5 or -1/2
The first choice matches A with -5/16, which is less than -0.5 or -1/2
Therefore, the fourth choice must be the correct answer.
Fractions are just unsimplified numbers. For example 5/8 is just 5 divided by 8 so 0.625. To find the percent from that you move the decimal two places to the right making it 62.5%. Hope this helps!
