Answer:

y = -4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out the slope, plug the coordinates in the formula.

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

= 6 - (-6) / -1 -2

= -4

Now you need to find the y-intercept, take the coordinates and plug them into your equation so far, which is y = -4x + b

y = -4x + b

-6 = -4(2) +b

-6 = -8 + b

2 = b

A farmer is dividing 128 eggs into 5 crates , how many eggs will go into each crate?

GaryK [48]

This is a division problem. You can use the standard algorithm of 128/ 5. Or you can create equal groups (draw five circles) and count out eggs until you distribute them all. I would start with 20 in each circle. That would be 20+ 20+ 20+ 20+ 20= 100 Then think 128-100= 28 Next count by 5's. 5+ 5+ 5+ 5+ 5= 25 Then think what is 28-25= 3 so 128/ 5= 25 with a reminder of 3 eggs left over.

bobby’s christmas list had 3 more than twice as many items on it than johnny’s list. johnny asked for 8 fewer items than bobby.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Johnny had 5 items and Bobby had 13 items.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that Johnny has x items and Bobby has y items in their list.

Bobby had 3 more than twice as many items on it than Johnny. So,

$\Rightarrow y=3+2x$ ----------1
