Answer:
3=-8y+5
Step-by-step explanation:
Gather your like terms, - 3y and - 5y which in turn in - 8y. You cant plus by 5 as it is not a like term. IF we were finding y we would rearrange and bring +5 to the other side and so on...
Approx. 5 miles I would say give or take the 1/2 mile shortcut by taking a straight path back to the house. I don't know if you need an exact distance but I hope this helps.
Answer:
One: x = 3/32
Two: y = 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
One
y = k*x
1/4 = k* 1/8 Multiply both sides by 8
8(1/4) = 8*k*(1/8)
8/4 = k
k = 2
=======================
3/16 = 2*x Divide by 2
3/32 = x
Two
y = 2/5
x = 1/3
2/5 = k * 1/3 Multiply both sides by 5
2 = 5*k * 1/3
2 = 5/3 * k Multiply both sides by 3
6 = 5 * k Divide both sides by 5
6/5 = k
y = 6/5 * x
x = 1/4
y = 6/5 * 1/4
y = 6/20 = 3/10
It a negative 1 because when have the - sign it a negative number
