Answer: 8.67 x 
Step-by-step explanation: To write a number in scientific notation, first write a decimal point in the number so that there is only one digit to the left of the decimal point. In this problem, we can write 8,670,000,000 as 8.670000000. Notice that there is only one digit to the left of the decimal point. Next, we count the number of places the decimal point would need to move to get back to our starting number which is 8,670,000,000. In this case, the decimal point would need to move 9 places to the right in order to get back to our original number. This would make our exponent positive 9 because we would need to move to the right 9 places. Lastly, we can drop any zeroes that are at the end of the decimal. Therefore, 8,670,000,000can be written in scientific notation as 8.67 x

Answer:
Luca bought 2 steaks and 4 watermelons.
Step-by-step explanation:
During the sale, steaks sold for $4 and watermelon sold for $3.50.
Let the number of steaks Luca bought be represented as x and the number of watermelons Luca bought be represented as y.
Luca spent $22 in total.
That means that the number of steaks that Luca bought multiplied by the price of each steaks plus the number of watermelons that Luca bought multiplied by the price of each watermelon will give $22.
In other words:
(4 * x) + (3.5 * y) = 22__________________(1)
Luca bought a total of 6 steaks and watermelons. This means that:
x + y = 6____________________________(2)
We have two simultaneous equations.
4x + 3.5y = 22 ___________(1)
x + y = 6 _______________(2)
From (2):
x = 6 - y
Putting this back in (1):
4(6 - y) + 3.5y = 22
24 - 4y + 3.5y = 22
24 - 0.5y = 22
=> 24 - 22 = 0.5y
2 = 0.5y
=> y = 2/0.5 = 4
Hence:
x = 6 - 4 = 2
Luca bought 2 steaks and 4 watermelons.

X+8 because ur adding 8 to a number (x)
It should be B
Calculate the slopes using the change of y over the change in x
-2/2=-1
That’s the only option with a slope of -1
