James says that 5/5 is greater than 9/10 is he correct please explain so that it is not confusing

1 answer:

4 0

Yes, James is correct.

Think of a pizza. If there are 5 slices and you have all 5 of them, then you have the whole pizza.

Now, instead of the pizza having 5 slices, it now has 10. Since the pizza is still the same size, the pieces are going to smaller. If you have 9 slices out of the 10, you won't have the whole pizza.

This is why 5/5 is greater than 9/10.

Find the equation of the line that passes through the points : (4 , -1 ) and (0 , -3)

Sergio [31]

Answer:

B. y= 1/2 x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

base equation: y= mx+ b

slope(m) equation: $\frac{y_{2}-y_{2} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

y2= -1 y1= -3

x2= 4 x1= 0

$\frac{-1 - (-3)}{4-0} =\frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$

y- intercept: -3

found by taking the y from (0,-3)

Given that g(x) = x^5 - 5x^4 + 10x^3 - 10x^2 + 5x - 1, find g^-1(x).

Ivan

First Factor.

$(x-1)^5 = x^5 -5x^4+10x^3 -10x^2+5x-1$

$g(x) = y = (x-1)^5$

Find inverse by solving for 'x'

$x-1 = y^{1/5} \\ \\ x = y^{1/5} +1 \\ \\ g^{-1} (x) = x^{1/5} + 1$
