To solve the problem divide the number of elephants by 8 (48 divided by 8 is 6), and then multiply the solution by 5 (6 times 5 is 30).
You can put it in a table like this:
5 10 15 20 25 30 - Monkeys
8 16 24 32 40 48 - Elephants
Answer:
-1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
in y=mx+b, m represents the slope. Let's try to get your equation to look like that. We can see that on the left side, the y is not yet alone so we must try to accomplish that. to do that we divide by -8 from the -8y, but we must also do that to the other side. you would get y=-2/8x-5/8. then we would simplify the -2/8x into -1/4x. Now it is y=-1/4x-5/8 and that resembles y=mx+b. m is slope and -1/4 is m.
1.19 dollars/quart x 1 quart/ 32 ounces = .037 = 3.7 cents per ounce
when you set up the multiplication, since quarts are in the denominator initially and you want to get rid of them, set the quarts in the numerator of the unit rate (1 quart/ 32 ounces) so that the units cancel and you are left with the units that you wanted ($/ounce).
Clear as mud?! :)
Answer:
y^2 + 16y + 64 = 0
(y + 8)(y+8) = 0
y + 8 = 0
y = -8
y + 8 = 0
y = -8
