Answer: 28 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: During the winter months, freshwater fish sense the water getting colder and swim to the bottom of lakes and rivers to find warmer water.
The total depth of the lake = 32 feet
Since, fish swims 7/8 of the depth, then the depth of lake to which the fish swim=
Since, 
therefore, 
Hence, the fish swim 28 feet in lake.
The second equation is <span>-5-2y=2, then
</span>
<span>-2y=2-(-5),
</span>
-2y=2+5,
-2y=7,
y=7÷(-2),
y=-3.5.
The first equation is 2x+5y=16, subtitude y=-3.5 in this equation, then
2x+5·(-3.5)=16,
2x-17.5=16,
2x=16-(-17.5),
2x=16+17.5,
2x=33.5,
x=33.5÷2,
x=16.75.
Answer: (16.75,-3.5)
The product of a number y and 12 or 12 times a number y. These are both equivalent expressions to 12y

Answer:
(a) not proportional
(b) k = 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
When a linear equation is of the form ...
y = mx + b
with b ≠ 0, the relation is NOT PROPORTIONAL.
__
If b=0, so the equation is of the form ...
y = kx
then the relation IS PROPORTIONAL. The constant of proportionality is k.
__
(a) Not proportional
(b) Proportional with k = 7/8
