Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:35x
The y has to be negative but the x positive. So that leaves only (3,-4)
Since we know there are 3 quarts of pineapple juice and 2 gallons of orange juice the first thing you need to do is convert the units of the orange juice to quarts.
If there are 4 quarts in a gallon and we have 2 gallons then we have 8 quarts (4*2)
So 3 quarts of pineapple juice to 8 quarts of orange juice.
The ratio would be <u><em>3:8</em></u>
First set the equation equal to y by adding x to each side, then divide everything by 8. then set x to zero and solve to find the y - intercept of 1/2 which is just 4/8 reduced. you get this answer because x/8 becoming 0/8 is just 0 leaving you with only 1/2. then reset the equation with x and set y to zero and solve for x to get the x- intercept of -4. you get this by subtracting 1/2 from both sides leaving you -1/2=x/8 and multiply by 8 to get -4=x
