First, we need to find the LCD (Least Common Denominator) so we can subtract them much easier.

An easy way to find the LCD is to just multiply the denominators together: So 2 • 5 = 10

We have to do the same to the numerators too though.

1/2 (5) = 5/10

2/5 (2) = 4/10

Now, the remade expression is:

5/10 - 4/10 which will equal 1/10.

Hope it helped! If it did, please mark as Brainliest! :)

Gerri spends 1/21 of her money on pencils and 2/21 on paper. What fraction of her money does she spend. Give the answer in simpl

BigorU [14]

Answer:

Gerri spends 1/7 (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

If Gerri spends 1/21 of her money on pencils and 2/21 of her money on paper, adding these two fractions together will give us the total fraction of her money that she spent. Since 1/21 and 2/21 have the same denominator, we can add the numerators to get 3/21. However, fractions must always be in simplest form, meaning if the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) can both be divided evenly by the same factor, then the fraction can be simplied to lower numbers. In this case the number 3 and the number 21 can both be divided evenly by 3: (3÷3)/21÷3) = 1/7.

Determine the slope and y -intercept for each line shown. Then write the equation of the line (will give Brainliest)

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x+2$

m= $\frac{1}{4}$

b= 2

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x+1$

m= $-\frac{1}{3}$

b= 1

$y=3x+4$

m= 3

b=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,2) therefore its y-intercept is b=2.

The line rises up 1 unit on the y-axis for every 4 units on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m=1/4.

Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that $y=\frac{1}{4}x+2$

2. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,1) therefore its y-intercept is b=1.

The line down up 1 unit on the y-axis for every 3 units on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m= -1/3.

Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that $y=-\frac{1}{3}x+1$

3. The line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,4) therefore its y-intercept is b=4.

The line rises up 3 units on the y-axis for every 1 unit on the x-axis therefore the line has a slope of m=3.

Considering the equation of a line (y=mx+b), we plug in the variables we have found into the formula to find that $y=3x+4$
