You can make an equation with this information using a variable for the number of days and solve for that variable. Here we can use d to represent days.
Ryan can build 4 desks in a day, so you could express his production as 4d.
Larry can build 4 desks in 2 days, so you could say he makes 2 desks in 1 day, expressed as 2d.
If Larry starts work one day before Ryan, he's made an extra 2 desks. To get 32 desks, you need to add together those 2 desks Larry made, however many desks Larry can make, and however many desks Ryan can make:
2 + 4d + 2d = 32.
Then just simplify and solve:
6d = 30
d = 5.
It'll take 5 days for them to make 32 desks. Hope this helps! Please rate this answer as brainliest if you liked it!! thank you!!!
Solve for y:
y + 1 = -3/5x + 2.4 (multiply 4 by 3/5 no negatives because negative times a negative is a positive)
y = -3/5x + 1.4
Now graph the y-intercept of 1.4.
Then plot points using slope.
Hope this helps and let me know if you have more questions!
Answer:
3) 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2y = 5x + 4
y = 5/2x + 2
slope = 5/2
(y = mx + b, m being slope, b being y intercept)
It is becoming a smaller place value such as 2,000->200-> 20-> 2
