Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
✔️Slope (m) using the two points (2, 4.58) and (5, 4.28):
Slope (m) = -0.1
✔️Initial Value = y-intercept = b
To find b, substitute x = 2, y = 4.58, and m = -0.1 into y = mx + b.
(Note: y is P(t) and x is t).
Thus:
4.58 = (-0.1)(2) + b
4.58 = -0.2 + b
Add 0.2 to both sides
4.58 + 0.2 = b
4.78 = b
b = 4.78
Initial value = 4.78
✔️Equation for the linear function:
Substitute b = 4.78, and m = -0.1 into P(t) = mt + b
Thus the equation would be:
P(t) = -0.1t + 4.78
✔️The y-intercept = initial value = 4.78
✔️The x-intercept = the value of t when P(t) = 0.
To get this, substitute P(t) = 0 into P(t) = -0.1t + 4.78.
Thus:
0 = -0.1t + 4.78
Add 0.1t to each side
0.1t = 4.78
Divide both sides by 0.1
t = 47.8
x-intercept = 47.8
A) 11/15 = .733....
B) 3/5 = .6
C) 2/3 = .666....67
D) 19/30 = .63
B, D, C, A
P= M÷T , Price equals money raised divided by number of tickets sold
The difference between 11.0 and 12.5 is 1.5 and same with 12.5 and 14.0, so 1.5 is what the hair increases by every THREE months but if you want to find PER month, you are going to divide 1.5 by those 3 months to get .5 inches per month, so your slope will be 1/2
Answer:
1. -29/156 2. 38/45 3. 29/45 4. 113/24 or about 4.7 5. 457/1, 914/2, 1371/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3/13 - 5/12 can be simplified to 36/156 - 65/156. Subtract this and you get -29/156
4/9 + 2/5 can be simplified to 20/45 + 18/45. Add this and you get
38/45
5/8 - 2/9 can be simplified to 45/72 - 16/72. Subtract this and you get
29/45
3 1/2 + 2 5/12 can be first made irrational to 7/2 + 29/24. This can be simplified to 84/24 + 29/24
113/24 or about 4.7
Not sure about the 457, but to convert it, you multiply it by whatever denominator you have. For example
1x457 = 457/1
2x457 = 914/2
And finally 3x457 = 1371/3
