Order them least to greatest. and explain

13. 1/2, 5/8, 3/4

16. 7/12, 3/5, 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

make them have the same denominator.

13) 1/2 x 4 = 4/8, 5/8, 3/4 x 2= 6/8

16) Grab two fractions let's say 3/5 and 2/3

Multiply 3/5 denominator (5) with 2/3 numerator (2)

It's 10 and place it above the number you multiplied the numerator from so it's above 2/3.  Do it again but with 2/3 denominator (3) and 3/5 numerator (3). Multiply 3 and 3 you get 9. Place the 9 above 3/5. We know that 9 is less than 10 so 3/5 is less than 2/3. You can do this with any two fractions.

(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

ok thats very interesting
