Answer:

300 chapter books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total books = 500

Ratio given = 2:3

So they are divided into 5 parts

Each part contains = 500/5 books = 100 books

So The chapter books have 3 parts

Chapters books = 3 * 100 = 300 books

i hope it will help you!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be the constant of proportionality.  Then we use it as follows:

2k + 3k = 500, or 5k = 500, or k = 100.

Thus, the number of picture books is 2(100) = 200, and the number of chapter books is 3(100) = 300.

As checks:  200 + 300 = 500 (books), and

200

-------- = 2/3, as specified in the problem.

300

What is the slope? I really suck at math
SVEN [57.7K]
Slope would be undefined because there are many many y-values for one x value. This is impossible for ANY function. To be specific, the correct equation that names the graph is <em>x=4</em>. Please note that this is <u>not</u> a function. If it goes straight up, it is <u>UNDEFINED</u>!!! 

Hope I helped!


The answer is <u><em>D</em></u>
