Step-by-step explanation:
1.) Plug in one of the points.
y = 8x + b
6 = 8(4) + b
2.) Solve for b (or [?])

32 cancels out on the right side.
Subtract 32 from 6, which is -26
3.) -26 = b
4.) Check with other point:
-2 = 8(3) + b
-2 = 24 + b
Cancel out 24 on the right side: 24-24 = 0
-2 - 24 = -26
-26 = b
Think of the equation as the 10 times as parts so if Halle read ten times as more than Janet then we do the equation 264/11 because we have to include Janet's part too so Janet read 24, one part of the total while Halle read 240, 10 parts of the total
Solution - 49 jellybeans divided by 7 for the ration purposes = 7 so 1/7 the ratio is 7
Therefore Kim having 4/7 is 4 X 7
Answer - 28
3x+5+10x-7=180
13x-2=180
-2 -2
13x=182
/13 /13
X=14
3(14)+5=47
10(14)-7=133
