You would begin by multiplying 7/10 by 8 to get 5 3/5. then you would subtract 5 3/5 from 15 5/8 to get the remaining amount of clay after the eight bowls (401/40). lastly, divide the remainder of the clay by 7/10 to get the number of bowls that could be made with it - which is 14. the actual answer has a decimal, but you must have a whole number in order to make an entire bowl. you can check this by multiplying 7/10 by 22 (for the total number of bowls) and you get 15 2/5

Answer:

3x +4 = -2x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The line that goes up to the right has a y-intercept of +4. This is where it crosses the y-axis. It's slope (rise/run) is 3/1 = 3, so its equation in slope-intercept form is ...

y = mx +b . . . . where m is the slope, b is the y-intercept

The other line has a negative slope and a y-intercept of -1. The slope of that line is rise/run = -2/1 = -2, so its equation is ...

The solution point will have the x-coordinate that is the solution of the equation ...

y = y

3x +4 = -2x -1 . . . . . . substituting the above expressions for y.
