Answer:

10.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 is the correct answer. Divide the total number of gallons by the amount added each hour. Remember that dividing is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal. Reduce answer if necessary.  

8 ÷  4 /5 =  8 /1 ×  5 /4 =  40/ 4 = 10

Question 2
drek231 [11]

Answer:

y=-3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+2y=-10

2y = -6x-10 (you need to isolate the y and so i took 6x and subtracted it from both sides)

y = -6/2x-10/2 ( dont feel like explaining)

divide them (-6/2 and -10/2) to get

y=-3x-5

Hope i helped
