Answer:
m = -1
c = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>m</em> is slope, which is the coefficient of <em>x</em>
<em>c</em> is the y-int, which is the constant
First we would change the fractions into decimals and compare them. That way it would be easy to solve when needed.
1/2=0.50
5/8=0.625
1/8=0.125
Now we can see that 1/8 (0.125) is the smallest, followed by 1/2 (0.50), and 5/8 the largest. Now we can match the sizes with the insects.
Since the tiger beetle is the largest we will place that with the length of 5/8 since that is the largest.
The carpenter ant is second largest so it would be matched with 1/2
The aphid is the smallest so that would be with 1/8 as the smallest
