Jim owns 48 cars.
4:3 as x:36
36/3 is 12, so the scale is 12.
x is 4*12 = 48
If there are 6 stacks with 2 cans in each stack, then you would times 6 x 2 = 12
Answer:
b. y = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
A line with zero slope has no dependence on x. It is simply ...
... y = constant
The constant must be the same as the y-value of the point you want the line to go through. Since the point is (12, -9), the constant is -9 and the equation is ...
... y = -9
You can't find the exact value of y, but you can find y in terms of x!
Adding 3y and subtracting 8 from both sides, we have:
2x-3y+3y-8=8+3y-8
2x-8=3y
Dividing by 3, we see that y=(2x-8)/3. This is the simplest form we can find for y.
