A + b + c = 168
b = 1/3c
a = b + c....a = 1/3c + c = 4/3c
now we sub
4/3c + 1/3c + c = 168
8/3c = 168
c = 168 * 3/8
c = 504/8
c = 63 <=== Carlos collected 63 lbs
a = 4/3c
a = 4/3(63)
a = 252/3
a = 84 <== Amy collected 84 lbs
b = 1/3c
b = 1/3(63)
b = 63/3 <== Bruce collected 21 lbs
b = 21
So, -(a-3b) becomes -1(a-3b). Then, this becomes 5a-1a+3b. There is +3b because there is a double negative. So, 5-1=4, so your answer is 4a+3b. Pls brainliest
What you need to do is find the smallest multiple that they both have (i forgot what that is called) list them like this:
12: 24 36 48 60 72
15: 30 45 60 75
60 is the lowest number that they both can multiply to
60 cups/lids is the answer
Answer:
equation y =7/4x+1
slope = 7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two points so we can find the slope
m =(y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
= (4--3)/(2--2)
= (4+3) / (2+2)
= 7/4
We know the slope and the y intercept
We can write the equation using y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y= 7/4x +1
We put at dot at (0,1) and then go up 7 and to the right 4 . We put another dot
Connect the dots and we have our line.
We could also put dots at (-2,-3) and (2,4) and connect the dots.
