2.4/0.3=8
0.3x8=2.4
The scale factor is 8.
Answer:
The equation, y=3x-5 is in y=mx+b format. The b, or -5 in this case, tells you what the y intercept is, or in this case, your starting point. This means your first point will be at (0,-5). The mx, or 3x in this case, tell us how much to move up and how much to move sideways. 3x is equal to 3/1x and the 3/1 tells us the rise/run. Rise being how much to go up or down and run being how much to go to the left or right. So in 3x, the rise is 3 and the run is 1. So you will go 3 up on the y axis and 1 to the right on the x-axis. So your next point will be (1, -2) and the point after that will be (2, 1) and so on!
hope this helped!
If x is the smaller one, and is odd, the next consecutive odd integer is x+2.






Check:
11(13) = 143
23 + 5(11 + 13) = 23 + 120 = 143, check
-3(-1) = 3
23 + 5(-3 + -1) = 3, check
Answer: 11,13 or -3,-1
Let x = price of shoes
Then price of jacket would be x - 5.81
Combining the two would give you
x + x - 5.81 = 99.15
combining like terms simplifies to 2x - 5.81 = 99.15;
now adding 5.81 to both sides of the equal sign leaves
2x = 104.96
and finally, dividing both sides by 2, gives x = $52.48; which is the cost of the shoes. Recall, the cost of the jacket is 5.81 less than the cost of the shoes.
so, COST OF THE JACKET is 52.48 - 5.81 = $46.67
