<span>Multiply the length and width together to get the total required area - 5*8 = 40. Now each tile covers 3 inches and you need to cover 40 feet, so convert feet into inches by multiplying 40 by 12 (480). Now divide 480 (desired area) by 3 (how much each tile covers) to get 160 - the amount of tiles you'll need.
Sorry, didn't realize I didn't post it as an answer. But no problem!</span>

They are the same fraction, so they are proportional.
Answer:
89 seats are not being used
Step-by-step explanation:
You subtract the seats being used by teachers
342 - 75 =267
Change 2/3 into a percentage = 66.6%
Find 66.6% of 267= 177.8 (I rounded up to 178)
Then subtract 177.8/178 from 267 to find the amount of seats not being used.
The amount of seats not being used would come down to 89 seats.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
y = 1/3x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation for slope intercept form is y= mx + b.
m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis which is called the y-intercept.
to find the y-intercept plug in a coordinate on the line (6,0)
0 = 1/3(6) + b
then solve for b by first multiplying 1/3 by 6
0 = 2 + b
subtract 2 from both sides
-2 = b
and then you can plug b into the equation
y = 1/3x - 2
