Step-by-step explanation:
always try to bring fractions you need to compare to the same denominator (bottom number).
we have 9/10 of the pizza left.
then 4/5 if the pizza are eaten.
how to compare 9/10 with 4/5 ?
by bringing 4/5 also to a fraction of 10ths.
what do I need to multiply 5 with to get 10 ?
right, 2.
since we don't want to change the overall value of the original fraction, we need to multiply both levels (numerator and denominator) by that same factor :
4/5 × 2/2 = 8/10
aha !
that we can compare with 9/10.
so, when Lucas ate 4/5 (= 8/10) of the pizza, when there was originally 9/10 left, then we have 1/10 of the pizza left.
Answer: y+3= -1/4(x-8)
Step-by-step explanation: so if y-y1=m(x-x1) and y1= -3 and x1=8 and m=(-1/4) u just plug in those number to the equation
y = 40 + 90x. Which statement represents the meaning of each part
of the function?
(1) y is the total cost, x is the number of months of service,
$90 is the installation fee, and $40 is the service charge per
month.
(2) y is the total cost, x is the number of months of service,
$40 is the installation fee, and $90 is the service charge per
month.
(3) x is the total cost, y is the number of months of service,
$40 is the installation fee, and $90 is the service charge per
month.
(4) x is the total cost, y is the number of months of service,
$90 is the installation fee, and $40 is the service charge per
month.
Answer:
Option (2).
Step-by-step explanation:
A satellite T.V. company charges one time installation fees along with monthly service charge.
Total cost is modeled by the function y = 40 + 90x
Here y = Total cost charged by the company
A one time installation charges = $40
Service charge for a month = $90
and number of months for which service was used = x months
Therefore, Option (2) explains the function well.
