Answer:
B. -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x = 5x + 22
Put the like terms together, so subtract 5x from the right side. This will result in the new equation, -11x = 22
Now, divide by -11. This will result in the final equation, x = -2
If there is 20 pencils there will be 5 erasers 20:5
Graph A is the correct one because it has a point at -3 and has a slope of 3/4.
Hope this helps!
The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
