You will get the incorrect answer because lining up the digits when adding or subtracting is important but it isn’t needed for multiplying.
Answer:
The repeating decimal cost
a) As a fraction = $
b) As a mixed number = $ 
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of making a computer component
= $3.161616
= $ 3 + 0.161616
Looking at the repeating decimal it is in 6 decimal places, hence to convert it to a fraction,
0.161616/ 1000000 × 1000000
= 161616/1000000
Therefore, the cost of making the computer component =
$3 + $161616/1000000
Step 1
We convert to a fraction
$3 + $161616/1000000
We find the LCM = 1000000
($3 × 1000000)+ ($161616× 1)/1000000
3000000 + 161616/1000000
= $ (3161616/1000000)
As a Mixed number = 
Can you help me with my posted questions
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b. So let's use the given equation and turn it into this form.

Move the -3x to the right side

Divide both sides by -5

This should be your answer, let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Answer: y= 3x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a straight line:
y = mx + b ------(i)
Step by Step Solution:
Step 1: Calculating Slope (m).
m =
y2-y1
x2-x1
m =
2--1
1-0
m =
3
1
m = 3
Now putting value of m in equation (i)
y = 3x + b -----(ii)
Step 2: Calculating Y-intercept (b).
Lets choose the first point, (0,-1) for calculating y-intercept:
y = mx + b
-1 = 3(0) + b
-1 = 0 + b
-1 = b
b = -1
