Answer:

(-1/4)(2x +5y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply and divide by -1/4:

$-\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{5}{4}y=\dfrac{(-\frac{1}{4})(-\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{5}{4}y)}{-\frac{1}{4}}=\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(-4)\left(-\dfrac{1}{2}x-\dfrac{5}{4}y\right)\\\\=\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\left(2x+5y)$

First, we start with the equation that the problem told us, which is:

R + 6 = 2 * (x + 6)

Then, we distribute the two:

R + 6 = 2x + 12

Now, we put R on its own side.

R = 2x +6

So, the answer must be C, 2x + 6

Make an standard form equation based on this graph.

OLga [1]

Answer:

y = -1/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: The y-intercept is on the y-axis line. The y-intercept in this graph is -2.

Step 2: To find the slope. The line is going downwards so that helps us know that the slope is going to be negative. You want to get the bottom point to the top. So move upwards 1 time and move 4 times to the left.

Step 3: Now just put everything together.

Answer:

There are 7360 M&Ms in larger jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

A giant jar is such that it is exactly four times times the smaller jar in dimensions.

If r and h is the radius and height of the cylindrical jar respectively, then the dimensions of the larger are:

$R = 4r\\H=4h$
