Answer:

By using linear equation

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b=515......Equation 1

a-b=475.........Equation 2

From equation 1

a=515-b

Putting value of a in Equation 2

515-b - b=475

515- 2b=475

515-475=2b

2b=515-475

2b=40

b=40/2

b= 20

Putting b=20 in Equation 1

a+20=515

a=515-20

a= 495

a=495

b= 20

Check whether equation hold true

a+b=515

495+20=515

a-b= 475

495-20=475

Please mark it branliest if the answer is little bit satisfactory. Thanking in anticipation.

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

Rate of change is slope.

Step 1: Define

Identify.

Point (-1, -1)

Point (1, -1)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

Substitute in points [Slope Formula]: $\displaystyle m = \frac{-1 + 1}{1 + 1}$
[Order of Operations] Simplify: $\displaystyle m = \frac{0}{2}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle m = 0$

Organize from least to greatest

dedylja [7]

Answer:

y=31x/15 < y=27x/13 < y=15x/7 < y=13x/6 < y=11x/5 < y=21x/9 (=7x/3) < y=19x/8

Step-by-step explanation:

since all equations base on a linear, simple expression of x, we can simply compare the fractions.

in general, the bigger the number at the bottom, the smaller the individual fraction. that is our first indicator.

we then notice that many fractions represent the value of 2 plus one fraction.

31/15 = 2 1/15

27/13 = 2 1/13

15/7 = 2 1/7

13/6 = 2 1/6

11/5 = 2 1/5

the only exceptions are 21/9 and 19/8

but 21/9 is actually 7/3 = 2 1/3

and fits therefore into the list above.

that leaves 19/8 = 2 3/8.

the list above can be sorted based on the single fraction at the end (remember, the bigger the number at the bottom, the smaller the value). so, from least to greatest :

2 1/15 (31/15)

2 1/13 (27/13)

2 1/7 (15/7)

2 1/6 (13/6)

2 1/5 (11/5)

2 1/3 (7/3 = 21/9)

where did now 2 3/8 fit in ?

well, 3/8 is almost 1/2 (so, relatively big), and we start our comparison with the biggest number in the list so far :

1/3 (from 2 1/3).

what is bigger - 1/3 or 3/8 ?

let's find the smallest number that can be divided by 3 and by 8. that would be 24. so now we bring both fractions to the same base of 24.

1/3 = 8/24

3/8 = 9/24

=> 3/8 > 1/3

and therefore, 19/8 is the largest value and at the end of the list.
