I got 12 because each time you are dividing the number in half. Half of 24 is 12.
The ratio is basically finding the quotient of two numbers. If you want to find the ratio of horses to cows, divide the number of horses to that of cows.
Ratio = 18/27
When expressing it to its simplest form, make sure it is reduced. 18 and 27 are both factors of 9. So,
Ratio = 9*2/9*3
Cancelling out 9, the ratio at its simplest form is: <em>2/3</em>
The last one because its like turning it into a fraction but your putting as a desamile or how ever you spell it
Subsitute -4y for x
-4y+6y=18
2y=18
divide both sides by 2
y=9
sub back
x=-4y
x=-4(9)
x=-36
(x,y)
(9,-36)
V=4x-1 I believe is the anwsers
