It depends what your trying to get close to. If your trying to get close to a number that is easier to work with 1 4/8 is good because its the same as 11/2 but the closest whole number is 1.
Answer:
Well 50% of 632 is 316 but i need to see the expressions to be sure
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's say he was earring x before his raise. That means that:
x times 1.09 = 654 (1.09 represents 100% (this is the 1.0) of his original salary plus 9% (this is the .09) his raise.
So,
1.09x = 654; now divide both sides by 1.09 to isolate and solve for x, and you get x = $600.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is an error in the question. The table does not show two linear functions. y₁ is a linear function, but y₂ is not a straight line. It makes a bend at (-6,1).
Line 1 goes through (-12,-3) and (0,5).
slope = (5-(-3))/(0-(-12)) = 2/3
y-intercept = 5
y₁ = (2/3)x + 5
Line 2 goes through (-12,-2) and (-6,1).
slope = (1-(-2))/(-6-(-12)) = 1/2
y₂ = (1/2)x + 4
(2/3)x + 5 = (1/2)x + 4
x = -6
y = (2/3)x + 5 = 1
Solution: (-6,1)
This is my answer that's a less than or equal sign
