Answer:  Choice B

1 & 3/4

=============================================

Explanation:

Rewrite 1/2 into 4/8 so that it has the same denominator as 7/8.

Now that the denominators are the same, we focus on the numerators. This is because the equal denominators cancel out when we divide the fractions later on.

We'll divide the numerators 7 and 4 to get

7/4 = (4+3)/4

7/4 = (4/4) + (3/4)

7/4 = 1 + (3/4)

7/4 = 1 & 3/4

What is the slope of the line with an x-intercept of 4 and a y-intercept of -3?

Answers

the answer to this question is the slope is 43

Answer:

Therefore, the slope is 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

An x -intercept is the value of x when y=0 , so an x-intercept of 4 can be written as a coordinate on the graph as (4,0)

Likewise, an

y -intercept is the value of y when x=0 , so an y -intercept of −3can be written as a coordinate on the graph as (0,-3)

Now we have two points(4,0) (0,-3)

To find the slope given two points, we use the formula

rise÷run , or y2−y1÷x2−x1 .

Plug in the given points into the formula

-3-0/0-4

-3/-4

3/4

Therefore, the slope is 3/4

Select all sets in which the number - 12 is an element.

B. whole numbers
C. integers
D. irrational numbers
E. natural numbers
F. rational numbers
Help plz

Answers

3 Answers: A, C, F

real numbers, integers, rational numbers

=========================================================

Explanation:

So far in your studies, every number is a real number. This is assuming your teacher hasn't introduced complex or imaginary numbers yet.

So that's why -12 is a real number.

Choice A is one of the answers

---------------

The set of whole numbers is {0,1,2,3,4,...} so we aren't including negative values here, which rules out choice B. However, the set of integers does include negative values

{..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...}

That makes -12 an integer

Choice C is one of the answers

----------------

The value -12 is not irrational because we can write it as a fraction of two integers. Eg: -12 = -12/1

This shows that -12 is rational and why choice F is one of the answers and allows us to rule out choice D.

------------------

We can rule out choice E because the set of natural numbers is {1,2,3,4,...} basically the set of whole numbers but we kicked out 0.

The requried, -12  is an element of sets of real numbers, integers, and rational numbers. Options A, C, and F are correct.

What is a number system?

A number system is described as a technique of composing to represent digits. It is the mathematical inscription for describing the numbers of a given set by using numbers or other characters in a uniform method. It delivers a special presentation of every digit and describes the arithmetic structure.

What is set?

Sets are an orderly collection of items in mathematics that can be expressed in set-builder or roster form.

Here,

Only sets that consist of negative values are, real numbers, integers, and rational numbers.

So - 12 is a negative number that belongs to the set of real numbers, integers, and rational numbers.

Thus, the requried, -12  is an element of sets of real numbers, integers, and rational numbers. Options A, C, and F are correct.

What is the weight (in grams) of a liquid that exactly fills a 182.8 milliliter container if the density of the liquid is 0.135grams over milliliter? Round to the nearest hundredth when necessary, and only enter numerical values, which can include a decimal point

Answers

Answer:

24.68 gram

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Volume = 182.8 ml

Density of liquid = 0.135 gram/ml

Recall :

Density = mass (g/ml) / volume (ml)

Substitute the value into the equation :

0.135 = mass / 182.8

Mass = 0.135 * 182.8

Mass = 24.678 gram

Hence, weight = 24.678 grams

The Lewis family and the Martin family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Lewis family's sprinkler was 30L per hour. The water output rate for the Martin family's sprinkler was 15L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 55 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1350L. How long was each sprinkler used

Answers

Answer:

Martin family: 20 hours

Lewis family: 35 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the Lewis family sprinklers were out for L hours and the Martin family's sprinklers were out for M hours. We know that for each hour that the Lewis family sprinkler was on, 30L of water was put out. We can thus write the Lewis family sprinkler water output as 30L per each hour of L = 30 * L. Similarly, the Martin family sprinkler water output = 15 * M .

We know that the total hours for the sprinklers is 55, so L + M = 55. The total water output for the sprinklers is the sum of the sprinkler outputs, so 30 * L + 15 * M = 1350

L + M = 55

30 * L + 15 * M = 1350

One way to solve this would be to solve for L in the first equation and substitute that into the second

subtract M from both sides in the second equation

55 - M = L

30 * (55-M) + 15 * M = 1350

30 * 55 - 30 * M + 15 * M = 1350

1650 - 15M = 1350

subtract 1650 from both sides to isolate the M and its coefficient

-15M = -300

divide both sides by -15 to isolate M

M = 20

L = 55-20 = 35

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the line.
- 3x - 4y= -20
Write your answers in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

The slope is -3/4 and the y intercept is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

- 3x - 4y= -20

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Solve for y

Add 3x to each side

- 3x - 4y+3x=3x -20

-4y = 3x-20

Divide by -4

-4y/-4 = 3x/-4  -20/-4

y = -3/4 x+5

The slope is -3/4 and the y intercept is 5

Answer:

Slope: [tex]\displaystyle-\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Y-intercept: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex], where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

[tex]-3x-4y=-20[/tex]

To find the slope and y-intercept of the given line, rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form. We can do this by isolating y.

Add 3x to both sides:

[tex]-3x-4y+3x=-20+3x\\-4y=3x-20[/tex]

Divide both sides by -4:

[tex]y=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4} x+5[/tex]

Now, we can identify [tex]\displaystyle-\frac{3}{4}[/tex] to be in place of m, the slope, and 5 to be in place of b, the y-intercept. Here is a comparison:

[tex]y=\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4} x+5[/tex]

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
