You are a painter. You are estimating how much paint it will take you to cover 2 large canvases and 6 smal canvases. Each large
canvas requires 3 1/2 cups of paint, and each small canvas requires 1 2/3 cup paint. How many cups of paint will you need in all to cover all of the canvases? A. 23 B. 21 C. 19 C. 19 D. 18 E. 17
If you know what 3 1/2+ 3 1/2 equals you should get 7. Now if you add the whole number of 1 six times you will 6. Now if you Multiply 2/3 by 6 you will get 4. Now the final step is 7+6+4= 17
So using standard form you convert the equation to 5x - 2y = -10 then use slope m of a line of the form Ax + By = C equals negative a over b. It would be a = 5 b = -2 m = -5/-2 m = 5/2. Have a good day the answer is 5/2
