The common factor of 18 and 42 is six
Write a literal equation for a.
18/a=7
Multiply both sides by a
18=7a
Then divide both sides by 7
18/7=a
Final answer: B
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is a linear equation in the form of 
, we can first solve for the slope using 
, for these points, the slope would be 
. Now we plug in the points to get the equation:
plugging in (7,5), we get 
×
+ 
and solving for b, we get b = 
therefore, the equation of the line passing through (7,5) and (1,2) is .

Let there be 2x science and 5x art books
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>
<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>
<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>
