I represents the amount of water the bottle could hold, but does not currently have in it. (Aka the amount of space in the bottle, in terms of oz or water)

I hope this helps!

Answer: the answers are below

Step-by-step explanation:

1 meal = 2/3 of a can of wet dog food, 1/8 of a bag of dry dog food, and 3/5 a patty of special meat

Food for 1 day: 2 meals = 2(2/3) = 4/3 of a can of wet dog food, 2(1/8) = 1/4 of a bag of dry dog food, and 2(3/5) = 6/5 a patty of special meat

The trainer goes to the store and buys 24 cans of wet food, 4 bags of dry food and 3 packages of meat (3*6 = 18 patties)

He has:

there is wet food for: 24/(4/3) = 24*3/4 = 18 days

there is dry food for: 4/(1/4) = 4*4 = 16 days

there is special meat food for: 18/(6/5) = 18*5/6 = 15 days

since the minimum for 15, 16 and 18 is 15 the dog will have food for 15 days and first he will run out of special meat.

Hello can anyone give me the step by step answer?

NISA [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, - 42 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, - 17 ) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = $\frac{-17-(-42)}{-3-(-8)}$ = $\frac{-17+42}{-3+8}$ = $\frac{25}{5}$ = 5

The line crosses the y- intercept at (0, - 2 ) , then

y = 5x - 2 → C
