The answer is x equals 24
you set up a proportion new over old
so for red cars 40 over 5
since we don’t know the new for blue cars we’ll use x
so x over 3
we then make them equal to each other
40 x
—- = —-
5 3
cross multiply, then we get
120=5x
isolate the x by dividing 5 from both sides to get 24

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y= -2x-22.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) the slope-interception common form is y=s*x+i, where 's' and 'i' are the slope and interception, unknown numbers;
2) if x₁= -3; y₁= -16, and s=-2, then the equation of the required line can be written in the point-interception form y-y₁=s(x-x₁); ⇔ y+16= -2(x+3);
3) the required equation in slope-interception form is:
y+16= -2x-6; ⇒ y= -2x-22.
note, the provided solution is not the only and shortest way.
<em>I would say that your answer is </em><em>44</em>
168=-8x
-8 -x
-21 = x
Division, 168 divided by -8
