Answer:
C, y = 1.2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that x, representing time, is multiplied by 1.2 each time to get y, representing the number of problems. You can find this out by dividing y by x. 36/30 = 1.2.
48/40 = 1.2.
And so on...
P.S.: If you ever come across a problem like this, subtract one y value by another y value, then subtract the corresponding x values from eachother, then make both numbers into one fraction with y as the numerator and x as the denominator. In this problem, that would look like this:
48 and 36 are both y values: 48 - 36 = 12
40 and 30 are the corresponding x values: 40 - 30 = 10
We get 12/10, which can be simplified to 1.2. The slope is 1.2.
This method will always work for a straight line and will be taught to you soon if you haven't learned it already.
8+2x=6x
subtract -2x on both sides
8=4x
Divide by 4 on both sides
2=x
all you need is the story :)

Answer: Choice C) -2 & 1/8</h3>
==============================================
Work Shown:
5 & 5/8 = 5 + 5/8
-5 & 5/8 = -(5 & 5/8) = -(5 + 5/8) = -5 - 5/8
So,
( -5 & 5/8 ) + ( 3 & 1/2 )
( -5 - 5/8 ) + ( 3 + 4/8 )
( -5+3 ) + ( -5/8+4/8 )
-2 + (-1/8)
-(2 + 1/8)
-(2 & 1/8)
-2 & 1/8
------------------------
Alternative Method
We could convert each mixed number to decimal form
-5 & 5/8 = -5-5/8 = -5.625
3 & 1/2 = 3+1/2 = 3.5
( -5 & 5/8 ) + ( 3 & 1/2 ) = -5.625+3.5 = -2.125
Then convert back to mixed number form
-2.125 = -2 & 125/1000
-2.125 = -2 & (1*125)/(8*125)
-2.125 = -2 & 1/8
