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

in the usa, the shoe sizes or men are approximated by the equation 3f-s=24, where f represents the length of the foot in inches
Otrada [13]

Answer:

x intercept = 8

y intercept = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

In the USA, the shoe sizes or men are approximated by the equation 3f-s=24, where f represents the length of the foot in inches and s represents the shoe size.

<u>When we represent this equation using a graph, we mark the independent variable on the x axis and the dependent variable on the y axis.</u>

Here the foot length is the independent variable and the shoe size is the dependent variable. Hence we take foot length on x axis.

To get x intercept put y=0, f = \frac{24}{3} = 8 inches .

This is the point from which where we start our shoe size.

The y intercept , s = -24.

On the right side we have st which is the same as s*t or s times t

We want to undo the multiplication that is happening to s, so we have to divide both sides by t

d = s*t

d/t = s*t/t ..... divide both sides by t

d/t = s

s = d/t

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

First we need to translate 2 units down. That means we need to subtract 2 from the y value. So now we have (-1,1).

For a 270 degree counterclockwise rotation the rule is to go from (x,y) to (y,-x)

So now we have (1,1). Since they're only asking for the x value, the answer is 1.

During first semester the ratio of the number of students in art class to the number of students in gym class was 2:7. However t
elena-s [515]
5/4 = 75/g....cross multiply because this is a proportion
5g = 300
g = 300/5
g = 60
so in 2nd semester, there were 75 students in art class and 60 students in gym class....for a total of 135 students.

1st semester....ratio was 2:7...added = 9
art : 2/9(135) = 270/9 = 30 <=== art class had 30
gym: 7/9(135) = 945/9 = 105 <=== gym class had 105
