Answer:

kk so like, division is just repeated subtraction. like idk say you have 36 and you divide it by 9 so I think you just keep subtracting 9 until you reach 0? so you end up subtracting 9 four times which happens to be the quotient for 36/9. yeah. it's almost like how multiplication is just repeated addition.

Find the unit rate. He drove 168 miles in 4 hours.

168/4= 42

He drives 42 Mph. 

Multiply that by 7.

42*7= 294

He drives 294 in 7 hours.

I hope this helps!

Write the following equation in slope -intercept form : y - 3 = 4(x + 2)​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

y=4x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply 4 into the parentheses to get y-3=4x+8 then invert -3 so add three to both sides to get rid of it so instead of +8 its +11 so now its y=4x+11 and slope intercept is y=mx+b, so 4 is m, slope, and 11 is b, the y intercept i hope that helps
