The missing pieces strategy is another method to compare two fractions. To tell which number is larger, you need to see which one is missing less. For example, you have 3/4 versus 4/5. Each of these fractions needs 1 to complete the whole. You need to subtract the numerator with one to compare them. For 3/4 we have 1/4 and for 4/5 we have 1/5. You know that if you complete 4/5 you will get 4. You know that 5 is greater than four. Therefore, 4/5 is larger than 3/4.
I'm going to make some assumptions here:
That your sqrt8x= sqrt4+2x means √(8x) = √(4+2x). (There are other interpretations.)
Squaring both sides, 8x = 4 + 2x, or 6x = 4, or x = 4/6, or x = 2/3.
The slope is -2/3 I hope this helped
So, your answer to this problem is
c = 4.
Answer: d. 102
Why
If 6 is 78 then 5 is 102 and since 1,3,5,and 7 are equal 3 is 102. [180-78=120(180 is the straight line)]
