Sandy bought 12 7/8 pounds of peaches to make jam. She and her mother ate 0.75 of a pound of the peaches before making the jam. They used 9 3/8 pounds of the peaches to make the jam. How many pounds of peaches were left over?

A. 3 1/4
B. 3
C. 2 3/4
D. 2 1/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

initial amount: 12 7/8 lbs

ate: 0.75 lbs= 3/4 lbs = 6/8 lbs

used: 9 3/8 lbs

remainder: 12 7/8 - 9 3/8 - 6/8

                = 3  1/8 - 3/8

                =2 6/8 = 2 3/4 = C

therefore C is the answer

Explain how you would graph the line -3x - y = 9 using intercepts.

Answers

Start by rearranging the question around where it’s y= so it would be y= 3x-9. Go down to -9 and place a point there, after go up three spots and move 1 point to the right. Keep doing that until you get your linear graph.
Hope that helped (:
-y=3x+9
y=-3x-9

it would be a line with a y intercept of -9 going up 3 and left 1 or down 3 and right 1 over and over again. it’s also linear

a point with a positive x-coordinate and a negative y- coordinate is reflected over the y-axis . what sentence will describe the coordinates of the new point ?

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that describes the reflected point (x,-y) over the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Since not sure if specific options are available lets answer this question in a general notation.

Let us consider the Co-ordinate system in two dimensions (i.e.  and ); where the horizontal line represents the  values and the vertical line representes the  values.Now we are told that we have a point with a positive x-coordinate and a negative y-coordinate, thus:

This means our point is located at the 4th Quadrant (where  values are positive and  values are negative).

Reflecting it over the y-axis means that our point is now located on the 3rd Quadrant (where both  and  values are negative).

Therefore the new reflected point will now be:

''a point with a negative x-coordinate and a negative y-coordinate''

Answer:

the x-coordinate is negative, and the y-coordinate is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

the guy above said so?

solve for x and y

What is the resolution in Ares god of war?

Answers

Answer    Ares was a Olympian god of war, violence and destruction. He was not welcomed by both gods and mortals in Greek mythology, nor ancient Greeks themselves, well with the few exceptions such as Spartans and the Amazons. He is often compared with his half sister Athena who is also, like Ares, associated with war activities. However, while Athena is respected and appreciated for her warfare, strategy, courage and wisdom, Ares is seen as the force of destruction, savage warfare and bloodlust. No one really liked his activities because, wherever he went, he left traces of misfortune and aberration behind. Despite his unpopularity, he was worshiped and honored in Crete and Peloponnese, where military bases of Spartans could be found, as well as in Pontus, the northern part of modern greece.

Problem: Four students tried to write 12x + 3y=9 in equivalent y= mx + b form.
Question: Did each student get an equation that is equivalent to the original Ax + By=C form?
If so, explain the reasoning for each step. If not, tell what errors the students made.

Answers

if you convert it to y=mx+b then you would have to subtract 12x from each side to make it 3y= -12x + 9 which if u divide by 3 is y=-4x + 3

Answer:

If they got y = -4x + 3 it is equivalent to the original.

Step-by-step explanation:

Common errors include leaving the y with a coefficient, forgetting to simplify all the terms or getting the slope wrong by using the opposite sign.

(If there are specific results included with the question, you could include them in the comments.)
