Jess is comparing fractions, which fraction is greater than 5/6?
a) 7/8b) 4/5c) 3/4d) 2/3

7/8 > 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 7/8

We can compare this as follows.

Lets say both are equal.

Cross multiplying these we get 40=42

We get 40<42. In fraction we get

In case if you want to convert this to decimal, we get;

5/6 = 0.833 and 7/8 = 0.875

We get 5/6<7/8

B) 4/5

Similarly we get 4/5 = 0.8 and 5/6 = 0.833

Here 4/5<5/6

C) 3/4

we get 3/4 = 0.75 and 5/6 = 0.833

3/4<5/6

D) 2/3

we get 2/3 = 0.66 and 5/6 = 0.833

2/3<5/6

f

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
