Set up the proportion with the numbers on top equalling the cars and the numbers on the bottom representing the trucks.
\frac{8}{36} = \frac{c}{9}
c equals the number of unknown cars.
To solve the proportion, cross multiply (multiply 8 by 9 and 36 by c) and solve for c.
72 = 36c
Divide 36 from both sides to get the answer.
c = 2
If there are 9 trucks, there are 2 cars.
You can check this by dividing 2 by 9, and dividing 8 by 36. Since they both equal the same number, this answer is correct.

Hope this helps =)

Answer: 2 Cars

Step-by-step explanation: 36 divided by 4 is 9 so you have to do 8 divided by 4 which is 2.    2 to 9 would be the ratio of cars to trucks.

How do I graph -4x+6y=12
eimsori [14]

You have 2 options.

I will show you the most efficient one, but later I will tell you the other.

-4x+6y=12

6y=4x+12

y=4/6x+12

y=2/3x+12

This tells us the point (0,12) as 12 is where it meets the y-axis (that is why you add it)

And then using the slope, 2/3 we can get (2,15) (which is up 3, right 2)

Just graph those, I would show you exactly, but I cannot add attachments sadly.

The other way (which I won’t show it all as the results would end out with the same line) is to fill in x, then y, with 0

So -4*0+6y=12 which means x=0 and you are solving for y  and -4x+6*0=12 which means y=0 and you are solving for x

Answer:

So, there are 3 cards in total, which means your pobability of picking one card out of the 3 cards is %33.33. So the probability of picking a 7 is 1/3. Because the other two numbers are greater than 7, and you already picked 7 so you cannot pick it again, the probabitily of pick a number greater than 7 is %100, or 3/3.

I hope that answers your question! :)
