You look at the first decimal place to see which is the greatest. 7 is greater than 5 and 2 so it's first. Then 5 is greater than 2 so it is next. For the last two numbers since 2 is the same value you look at the next decimal place. Since 7 is greater than 0 it comes next!
We are asked to simplify the ratio of 34 laptops out of 116 computers into the simplest form. The greatest common factor is 2. hence, we divide each number by 2. 34 divided by 2 is equal to 17 while 116 divided by to is equal to 58. Hence the answer to this problem is b. 17 <span>laptops : 58 computers. </span>
To show equality with fractions both fractions should be converted to show their values with the same denominator then draw a picture of those fractions.
Remember that you can only compare fractions with the same denominator as is said with other operations dealing with fractions.

Answer:
a = 3, b = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving the first equation for y, we get ...
2y +16 = 6x . . . . . given
y = 8 +3x . . . . . . . divide by 2
y = 3x -8 . . . . . . . subtract 8
In order for the system of equations to have infinitely many solutions, the second equation must be the same as this:
y = ax +b
a = 3, b = -8
