Imagine cutting up a pizza into 5 slices

If you take 2 slices, then you take 2 out of the 5, so the fractional amount you took is 2/5 of the full pizza.

If your friend takes 3 slices, then she or he takes 3/5 of the full pizza

Adding the two fractional amounts should get us back to 1 full pizza, which is why 2/5+3/5 = 1.

-----------

We could say this:

2/5 + 3/5 = (2+3)/5 = 5/5 = 1

Dividing any number over itself, as long it's not zero, always leads to 1.

So that's why 5/5 = 1.

Write the equation in y=mx+b form please????
Solnce55 [7]

ANSWER

y =  - 2x - 5

EXPLANATION

We can use any two points to determine the slope.

The line passes through;

(-3,1) and (-5,5).

The slope is given by

m =  \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

This implies that;

m =  \frac{5 - 1}{ - 5 -  - 3}

m =  \frac{4}{ - 2}  =  - 2

We can now find the equation using the formula;

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y   - 1 =  - 2(x  + 3)

Expand:

y =  - 2x -6 + 1

y =  - 2x - 5

alison, beatrice and chole each had some books. alison gave beatrice and chole some books that doubled the number of books they
slamgirl [31]

alison, beatrice and chole each of them have at first 56, 8, 32 books.

alison, beatrice and chole each had some books. alison gave beatrice and chole some books that doubled the number of books they had, lastly chole gave alison and beatrice some books that doubled the number of books they had. each of them had 32 books at the end.

<h3>What is Working backward?</h3>

Working backward is process in which calculation done in reverse direction.

let alison, beatrice and chole has x,y and z books initially,

alison gave beatrice and chole some books that doubled the number of books they had
alison, beatrice and chole has (96-2y-2z), (2y) , (2z)
chole gave alison and beatrice some books that doubled the number of books they had. each of them had 32 books at the end.

alison, beatrice and chole has 2(96-2y-2z), 2(2y) , (96-2(96-2y-2z)-4y)

at the end,
beatrice = 32

4y=32

y = 8

chole =32

96-2(96-2y-2z)-4y)=32
z=32

alison = 96-y-z

x=96-8-32
x=56

Thus the required alison, beatrice and chole each of them have at first 56, 8, 32 books.
