Answer:
An algebraic expression for <em>Sum of a and 5 divided by 8</em> is 
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to express the given statement as an algebraic expression.
Sum of a and 5 divided by 8
Basically, we are given the expression in English sentence and we have to write algebraic expression.
It can be done in two steps:
Sum of a and 5 = We know that sum is denoted by + sign. So, we get (a+5)
Sum of a and 5 divided by 8 = 
So, An algebraic expression for <em>Sum of a and 5 divided by 8</em> is 

Look at the graph picture I attached

c is the intercept, which is why the graph crosses the y-axis at +3
to find where it crosses the x-axis, we make y = 0

15 because it’s 3 times the actual amount
.08 x .04 is the right answer
x*-8 would be -8x
then you would divide -8 by both sides
should get a decimal as your answer I believe
