X - the number of boots
y - the number of sandals

The ratio of boots to sandals is 8:3.
\frac{x}{y}=\frac{8}{3} \\
8y=3x \\
y=\frac{3}{8}x

There are 245 more boots than sandals.
y+245=x \\
y=x-245 \\ \\
y=y \\
\frac{3}{8}x=x-245 \\
\frac{3}{8}x-x=-245 \\
\frac{3}{8}x-\frac{8}{8}x=-245 \\
-\frac{5}{8}x=-245 \\
x=-245 \times (-\frac{8}{5}) \\
x=49 \times 8 \\
x=392

There are 392 boots.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form and then in standard form for each line described. y-intercept -2; x-intercept 5
Xelga [282]
Hello
the line passes by A ( 0 ; -2)  and B (5 ; 0) equation : y = ax+b
a is a slop : a = (yb - ya)/(xb -xa)
a = (0+2)/(5-0)
a =2/5
y = (2/5)x+b
if x=5 and y= 0
0 = (2/5)(5)+b
b= - 2
the equation is : y = (2/5)x-2
