The answer is 4,000. if she can run 2,000 feet in 4 minutes, multiply both by two and the answer is 4,000 feet in 8 minutes
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days
8X+6Y=12
Here's how you solve it:
Just isolate y by itself to get y-intercept form.
This is the formula: Y=MX+B
M is the slope or the number next to X in the original problem.
First:
6Y=-8X+12
Next:
divided everything by 6
Y=-4/3+2
I think the answer is A!
