( divisor / dividend ) does not go into the same Evenly
Answer:
$13.50
Step-by-step explanation:
if the total is $31.50, it is both the blouse and the skirt together, so uf you take away the blouse from the total ($31.50 - $18) then yiu are keft with the price of the skirt
(3, –2) and (6, 2)First, we must establish slope...m=(y-y1)/(x-x1)m=(-2-2)/(3-6)m=-4/-3m=4/3Point slope formula is...y-y1=m(x-x1)Let's select either coordinate. I randomly select the first (3, –2)...y--2=4/3(x-3)Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number...y+2=4/3(x-3)This corresponds to the first answer.Standard form...Ax+By=Cy+2=(4/3)x-4y=(4/3)x-6-(4/3)x+y=-6Multiply both sides by 3...-4x+3y=-18This also corresponds to the first answer. How about the second coordinate, (6, 2)...y-y1=m(x-x1)y-2=(4/3)(x-6)Let's convert it into standard form..y-2=(4/3)x-8y=(4/3)x-6-(4/3)x+y=-6Multiply both sides by 3...-4x+3y=-18
Well, to add fractions, you need to find a common denominator. In this case, the smallest common denominator would be 12. So you must multiply each fraction so that both denominators are 12.
3/4*3/3=9/12
1/3*4/4=4/12
Add those two fractions together, reduce if possible, and you have your answer!
9/12+4/12=13/12
You can't reduce, so 13/12 is your answer.
Hope it helps!
