Both are correct because .5 is ten percent of 5. And the increase is only a half of a percentage point.

Determine the standard form of the equation of the line that passes through (6, – 9) and (-8, 6).
muminat

Answer:

15x + 14y = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (6 - -9)/(-8 - 6) = 15/-14

y = mx + b

6 = -15/14(-8) + b

6 = 60/7 + b

b = -18/7

y = -15/14x - 18/7

15/14x + y = -18/7, multiply everything by 14

15x + 14y = -18

Please help me with this question!
mixer [17]

Hi! I'm happy to help!

To solve this, we have to divide the 18 pounds, in 1/8 portions. We do this with division. To make this problem easier to solve, we need to turn it into a multiplication problem (opposite of division). To still make the problem correct, we have to take the opposite of one of our numbers. Let's take 1/8, and turn it into 8, now we have the problem:

18×8=

Now all we have to do is multiply:

18×8=

16 + 12 = 28 classrooms total
672/28 = 24 students per room
24 * 12 = 288 students that need to be in school B
288 - 192 = 96 students who have to transfer
