You work it backwards.

-- If there were 4 children and each child got 4 pieces,
then the children got (4 x 4) = 16 pieces altogether.

-- That's what was left after he took 2 pieces for himself. 
So he started with (16 + 2) = <em>18 pieces</em>.

So first 4 times 4 is 16 and then add 2 to get 18

Write the equation 
Shkiper50 [21]
a)\ the\ slope-intercept\ form:\ y=mx+b\\--------------------------\\m=\frac{2}{3}\Rightarrow y=\frac{2}{3}x+b\\\\the\ point\ (-3;\ 6)\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3}\times(-3)+b=6\\\\-2+b=6\ \ \ \ \ |add\ 2\ to\ both\ sides\\\\b=8\\\\\boxed{y=\frac{2}{3}x+8}


b)\ the\ two-points\ formula:y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\-----------------------------\\the\ points:\ (3;-1);\ (5;\ 7)\\\\y-(-1)=\frac{7-(-1)}{5-3}(x-3)\\\\y+1=\frac{7+1}{2}(x-3)\\\\y+1=\frac{8}{2}(x-3)\\\\y+1=4(x-3)\\\\y+1=4x-12\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 1\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{y=4x-13}

Can anybody help me out with this problem pleaseee :D

<h3>Answer: 10</h3>

Explanation:

"percent" means "per one hundred". Think "cent" as in "100 cents in a dollar". That's one way to remember.

So when we say something like 2%, we mean 2 out of 100 leading to the fraction 2/100 = 0.02

The same applies for 4.8% turning into 4.8/100 = 0.048

A quick shortcut without the use of a calculator has us move the decimal point 2 spots to the left to go from 4.8% to 0.048

-------------

After converting 4.8% to 0.048, we then multiply this by 200

200*(0.048) = 9.6

this value rounds to 10 which is the answer

Answer:

90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If two angles are supplementary they are a linear pair which means they form a straight line, and if you know a straight line equals 180 degrees which is the total degrees of a triangle.

Now if you have two supplementary angles and they are congruent that means not only are they right angles but its half of 180 so you divide these pair of 2 by 180 giving you your total of 90 degrees.

Have a nice rest of your day !
