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.

Naddik [55]
Answer:

y=3/8x-4
Move the expression to the left
y-3/8x=-4
Multiply both sides by 8
8y-3x=-32
Reorder the terms
-3x+8y=-32
Change the signs and standard form is...
3x-8y=32
