Answer:
6.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Ivanka’s ribbon = 4.5 inches long
Michal’s ribbon is 3 1/2 times ivanka’s
Therefore,
Michal’s = 3 1/2 x 4.5
= 7/5 x 4.5
= 31.5/5
= 6.3 = 6.30 to the nearest hundredth
Since we need a point that divides K-->J into two segments in a 1:3 ratio, let's flip it to a 3:1 ratio in the J-->K direction. That means that this point is 3/(3+1) = 3/4 of the way up line JK.
Let's take 3/4 of the x of K (plus the 1 for the x of J):
3/4×(9 - 1) + 1 (because the beginning ofvthe line, at J, has an x of 1)...
3/4×(8) + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7
Therefore the answer is C) 7
If it has a number before the fraction, it is between that and the next number, if not, it is between 0 and 1. if it is negative, it is between 0 and -1 with the above rules, just if it is only negative
