slope intercept form
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
if we change from point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
we distribute
y-y1 = mx -x*x1
then add y1 to each side
y = mx -x*x1+y1
remember x and y are variables and should stay in the equation
m,x1,y1 are numbers from the problem
you may have to calculate the slope (m) from the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) from two points on the line
All you have to do is follow PEMDAS (if you don't know what that is, search it up).
-2-5(4n-6)=-132
Distribute the 5 to everything in the parentheses.
-2-20n+30= -132
Combine like terms.
-20n+28 = -132
Subtract 28 from both sides.
-20n = -160
Divide by -20 on both sides.
n = 8

If they're similar it would be 72, 36x2=72.
4 people will have to wear caps while 3 other will wear shirts.
4x4 = 16
3x8=24
16+24= 40
