Answer: 17.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
After putting soil in the first flower bed, Layla's bag was ⅝ full. The pound of soil will be: = 5/8 × 10 = 6.25 pounds
Eliana's bag was ⅖ full. The pound of soil will be: = 2/5 × 10 = 4 pounds
Nature's bag was ¾ full. The pound of soil will be: = 3/4 × 10 = 30/4 = 7.5 pounds
The number of pounds of soil that they put in the first flower bed altogether will be:
= 6.25 + 4 + 7.5
= 17.75 pounds
1/2X+4=X-4
1/2X+8=X
8=1/2X
16=X
(Pick one of the equations )
y=1/2X+4
y=(1/2)(16)+4
y=12
point: (16,12)
Answer:
TOP 2, and bottom right
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope, so since you want a line that is parallel to a line with slope -8, your line will also have slope -8.
The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is
y = mx + b
where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
You already know you have a slope of -8, so m = -8, and you have
y = -8x + b
Now you need to find the value of b.
Use the point you know and substitute it in for x and y, and solve for b.
y = -8x + b
Use x = -8, and y = 2.
2 = -8(-8) + b
2 = 64 + b
-62 = b
b = -62
Now replace b with -62.
y = -8x + b
y = -8x - 62
