To solve this you put it into a ratio
the number of students that like it will go on top and the total college students will be on bottom
5/8
if a college has a total of 4000 students, that will go on bottom and x will be on top
x/4000
to solve for x you would multiply 5 by 4000, and then divide by 8
this would give you x=2500

5 out of 8 turned into a fraction is 5/8. 5/8 turned into a percentage is 62.5%. 62.5% of 4,000 is 2,500. 2,500 students in the college like algebra.
Hope this helped.

The answer has to be in y-intercept form. Which is y=mx+b and b can also be neg. y=mx-b. The m is your slope and b is your y-intercept. So A’s slope counting from 3 on the y axis to 1 on the x-axis which is down 2 over 1 so it will be -2/1. And your y intercept is 3. The equation is y=-2x+3. For B its the same thing but no graph. Remember that slope is RISE over RUN. So since the number is on the bottom of the line the rise is 4 and the run is 1. So in this case 10 is your y-intercept. Which means you equation is y=4x+10.
