Please help me with this math homework thanks :)
1 answer:
Place a point at (0,-5) because that is the y-intercept (the -5 on the vertical line)
Since the slope is negative two which can be re-written as -2/1 (rise/run) you go down two and to the right once or up two and to the left once, it doesn't matter which. Another point can be placed at (1,-7) or (-3,-1), it still doesn't matter which.
Then you can draw a line connecting the two points.
I hope this helps :)

Answer:
The number of red pens is 20.
The number of blue pens is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that, the ratio of number of red pens to the number of blue pens is 5 : 1.
∴ Let us assume that the number of red pens be 5<em>x</em> and number of blue pens be <em>x</em>.
Total number of pens in the desk drawer = 24
Now, according to question :
Number of red pens + Number of blue pens = 24
⇒5<em>x</em> + <em>x</em> = 24
⇒6<em>x</em> = 24
⇒
So, number of red pens in the drawer = 5<em>x</em> = 5 × 4 = 20
Number of blue pens in the drawer = <em>x</em> = 4
