Answer:
2/5, 8/20, 4/10,16/40
Step-by-step explanation:
40%
Percent means out of 100
40/100 = 4/10 = 2/5
Lets look at the choices
8/100 =4/50 =2/25 not equal
2/5 equal
8/20 = 4/10 =2/5 = equal
4/10 = 2/5 = equal
16/40 = 4/10 = 2/5 equal

Answer: x-2y = -8</h3>
===========================================
Explanation:
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear out the fraction
y = (1/2)x+4
2y = 2[ (1/2)x + 4 ]
2y = 2*(1/2)x + 2*4
2y = x + 8
Then move the x term over to the left side
2y = x+8
2y-x = 8
-x+2y = 8
Optionally we can multiply both sides by -1
-x+2y = 8
-1*(-x+2y) = -1*8
x-2y = -8
This is in standard form Ax+By = C with A = 1, B = -2, C = -8
The reason why I multiplied both sides by -1 was to make A > 0 which is what some textbooks use as convention. Of course -x+2y = 8 is equally valid too.
