10lb. of jam needs 5lb. apple, or 2lb. of jam needs 1lb. apple. 
Now we want 8lb. of jam.
Set up a proportion:
2/1=8/x 
Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
2x=8 
x=4 lb. of apple

A vending machine has 5 colors (white, red, green, blue, and yellow) of gumballs and an equal chance of dispensing each.
DerKrebs [107]

Answer in fraction form = 1/20

Answer in decimal form = 0.05

Answer in percent form = 5%

These are three ways to express the same thing

=============================================================

Explanation:

Assume the gumball machine only has 5 gumballs, one of each color. The probability of getting yellow is 1/5 since there is one that is yellow out of 5 total.

The probability of getting a lion rubber band is 1/4 for similar reasoning as above.

Because the two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, this means we can multiply the two probabilities to get (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20

Use your calculator to see that 1/20 = 0.05 which converts to 5% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.

Write the equations of three distinct lines that have the same y-intercept,-1.
guajiro [1.7K]
Three possible answers are:
y = 2x-1
y = 5x-1
y = -3x-1

All of them have the same y intercept of -1. The slopes are the only thing that differ.

Any linear equation can be written in the form y = mx+b where
m = slope
b = y intercept
