Answer:
y = -
x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
2y + x = -8
2y = -x - 8
= 
y = -x - 4
When solving problems like these, the easiest thing to do is either turn both fractions into decimals or into fractions with a common denominator.
So 3/4 = 0.75 OR 9/12
And 2/3 = .666 OR 8/12
In solving the actual question, you're looking for the store that gives the better deal, meaning that they sell MORE apples for LESS.
The first store sells 9/12 of a bushel for $9 and the second store sells 8/12 of a bushel for $8.
The answer is the first store which sells 3/4 of a bushel for $9.

Answer:
In Grade 8, 17% of students liked running
Step-by-step explanation:
Although this table is incomplete, there are still enough information to answer.
First, we need to be aware that the data here is written in decimal numbers, which is another way to write percentages.
In other words, 100% equals to 1, which is to say that if we multiply decimal number with 100 we'll get the percentage:
0.39 = 39%
0.04 = 4%
Another important thing to establish is that the value of decimal number DOES NOT mean the number of people, it only suggests the ratio:
0.26 does not mean 26 people etc.
Knowing this, from this incomplete table, we see that 0.17 students from grade 8 liked running. And now we know that 0.17 equals to 17%, which makes B the correct answer.
