Answer:
4.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the termites: 5 pounds
After the termites: 1/4 of a pound
Amount that the termites took: x
5 - x = 1/4
Add x to both sides of the equation
5 = 1/4 + x
Subtract 1/4 from both sides of the equation
4 3/4 = x
4 3/4 = 4.75
The termites took 4.75 pounds from the log
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the total number of pages by 5 to get how many sets of every 5 pages will contain 2/3 of a page of advertisements.

Multiply this value by
to get the total number of pages.
pages
Y=mx+b, m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(7-4)/(6--3)=3/9=1/3
y=x/3 +b, now use either point to solve for b, I'll use (6,7)
7=6/3 +b
7=2+b
b=5 so our line is:
y=x/3 +5 or more neatly...
y=(x+15)/3
