Answer:

\frac{x}{c*s} weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

SO in order to calculate that you need to first multiply the number of cups of soup a week by student that the cafeteria need, by the number of students, so if you have S number of student and each needs C amount of cups of soup, the cups of soup total will be CS.

So in order to know how many weeks will X number of cups will last you just divide the number of cups by CS:

\frac{x}{c*s} weeks

And that´s the answer.

Answer:

x/(cs)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the number of weeks we're feeding students soup.

w\,\text{weeks}\times\dfrac{c\,\text{cans}}{\text{student}\cdot\text{week}}\times s\,\text{students}=x\,\text{cans}\\\\w=\dfrac{x}{c\cdot s}\qquad\text{divide by $c\cdot s$}

Answer:

y= 1/3 x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we take two points

(0,5)   and (15,10)

The slope is found by the formula

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (10-5)/(15-0)

   = 5/15

   = 1/3

The slope is 1/3

The y intercept is found when x=0

When x=0  y=5

The slope intercept form of the line is

y=mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y= 1/3 x +5
