7 1/5: Multiply the denominator and the whole number: 7*5 = 35 and then add the numerator: 35+1= 36/5. Then, do this for the following fraction, the improper fraction value of 2 2/15 is 32/15. Now we need 36/5 & 32/15 to have common denominators so that we can simplify it a little less complicated.
For Instance,
36/5*3= 108/15
Now we divide, (108/15)/(32/15) 108/32= 3.375 = 3 3/8
You find the changes of y over the changes of x. y sub 2 - y sub 1 divided by x sub 2 over x sub 1. So, 17 - 10 over 2 - 1 = 7. 3 is the y-intercept. y=7x+3
