The value of y would be 5.
Answer:
4 ÷ 6/9 is also equal to 4 x 9/6. This is because when you divide by a fraction, you change the division sign to multiply and reverse the numerator and the denominator of the fraction. For example, if x/y was a fraction, it would become y/x. THIS IS ONLY DURING DIVISION!
So, we now that 4 ÷ 6/9 is equal to 4 x 9/6. 4 x 9/6 = (4x9)/6 = 36/6 = 6.
A) yes
B) yes
C) no
For each of these, substitute the value of x in the ordered pair into x in the function.
For A, x = -5; -5<2, so the piece of the function we want is f(x) = 3. In our ordered pair, y=f(x)=3, so yes, it is a solution.
For B, x = 2; 2≤2<6, so the piece of the function we want is f(x) = -x+1. In our ordered pair, y=f(x)=-1; -2+1=-1, so yes, it is a solution.
For C, x = 8; 8≥6, so the piece of the function we want is f(x) = x. In our ordered pair, y=f(x)=-7; -7≠8, so no, it is not a solution.
