36....we need to break this down...12 * 3 = 36
12 * 3....we can break this down because 12 is not prime...4 * 3 = 12
4 * 3 * 3...we can break the 4 down because it is not prime
2 * 2 * 3 * 3 <==== prime factorization
First you distribute what’s outside the parentheses (the -4)
-4•4= -4y
-4•-2= 8
New equation: -4y+8=12
Now you solve like a normal equation
12-8 is 4
New equation: -4y=4
Now divide
Answer:-1
70dB is represented by 100cars in 60sec. Therefore if the number of cats is reduced by 3/4 in the same amount of time(60s), then the decibel level will reduce by 3/4 also. So 70dB * .25= 17.5dB
1). y-3=-2(x+4)
2) slope = 3/4
y+2=3/4(x+4)
y=3/4x +1
3x-4y=4
looks like only the last one
