The formula is y=mx+b
To get the slope or m, use this formula
(the second y minus the first y)/(the second x minus the first x)
Now set it up.
(10-7)/(2--1)
3/3=slope is 1.
y=1x+b
Insert one of the points for x and y.
i will do (-1,7)
7=1(-1)+b
7=-1+b
8=b
Insert this into the final equation:
y=1x+8
Try it out. If you're not sure, try both points. If it works, then you set it up correctly.
On order to change B to C, you have to bring B 3 units to the right and then 4 units down.
Answer:
67 students voted for the eagle
Step-by-step explanation:
The students at Woodward Elementary voted for a school mascot. The falcon won with 5/8 of the votes and the eagle came second with 1/3 of the remaining votes. If 536 students voted for a mascot, how many students voted for the eagle
Total students who voted = 536
Falcon won with 5/8 of the votes
5/8 of 536
=5/8 × 536
= 2,680/8
= 335 votes
Falcons won with 335 votes
Remaining votes = Total votes - falcons votes
= 536 - 335
= 201 votes
There are 201 votes remaining
Eagle came second with 1/3 of the remaining votes
1/3 of the remaining votes
= 1/3 × 201
= 201/3
= 67 votes
67 students voted for the eagle
There are as many fractions equal to 4/5 as there are numbers, but here are a couple that fit:
20/25
8/10
12/15
<span>100/125
...etc. Hope that answered your question :)
