in the town zoo, 3/28 of the animals are birds. of the birds, 4/15 are birds of prey. what fraction of the animals are birds of prey?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: let's call the animals "a" and birds "b"

b=(3)/(28)a

we knot this from3/28 of the animals are birds.

and we also know that 4/15 are birds of prey.  so

p=(4)/(15)b

we could substitute:

p=(4*3)/(15*28)

and solve:

p=(1)/(35)
and this is the answer!

Graph the line
Y=-2/5x+2

Answers

Hey There @Fay2121,

Always remember to use the rise over run principals in order to graph the line.

What does rise mean?

Rise basically means to go up and down vertically.

What does run mean?

Run basically means to go left or right horizontally.

The starting point is always the y intercept.

In this graph you would go up 2 spaces and left 5 spaces.

Answers

Sabina is saying that there's almost an even chance that she will be late, but she has a slightly higher chance of being late than early. (Because 0.5 is half, but she said it's more than 0.5.)
