Answer:
B) 34/48
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest common denominator to find is the product of the denominators you have.
__
The difference is ...
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
The difference numerator and denominator have a common factor of 2, so can be reduced to 17/24. The denominator 24 could have been used as the common denominator from the start.
5/6 -1/8 = 20/24 -3/24 = 17/24 . . . . reduced result
__
Using the <em>least common denominator</em> does not always result in a reduced sum or difference. If some other denominator is used (as here), then you can be assured that the result will need to be reduced to get to lowest terms.
For this case we have that by definition, the line equation of the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
According to the statement we have:
Thus, the equation is of the form:
We substitute the given point and find "b":
Finally, the equation is of the form:
