The nearest million is 46 million since if the number to the right of "nearest so and so" is less than 5, you round down but if it is 5 or more then you round up.
Hope this helps!
See the attachment..........
D = 2C
J = 1/3D
J = C - 1
J = 1/3D
J = 1/3(2C)
J = 2/3C
2/3C = C - 1
2/3C - 3/3C = -1
-1/3C = -1
C = -1 * -3
C = 3...there are 3 cats
J = C - 1
J = 3 - 1
J = 2.....there are 2 collars
Y = -2x - 3
First make a table, then start inserting the x's you choose and figure out the y's.
x y
----------------------
-2 -2(-2) -3
4 - 3
1
-----------------------
-1 -2(-1) - 3
2 - 3
-1
------------------------
0 -2(0) - 3
0 - 3
-3
-------------------------
1 -2(1) - 3
-2 - 3
-5
--------------------------
2 -2(2) - 3
-4 - 3
-7
--------------------------
Now you can plot the points into a graph.
(-2, 1), (-1, -1), (0, -3), (1, -5), (2, -7)
-2/3x +1/3 +x = 2/5
⇒ 1/3x + 1/3 = 2/5
⇒ 1/3x = 2/5 -1/3
⇒ x/3 = 1/15
⇒ 15x = 3
⇒ x = 3/15
⇒ x = 1/5
