Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the most important things to understand about lines is the definition of slope. Slope is the 'steepness' of the line, also commonly known as rise over run. We can calculate slope by dividing the change in the y-value between two points over the change in the x-value.
First plane: 496x
<span>Second plane: 558( x - 1/2) </span>
<span>Equation: 496x = 558( x - 1/2) </span>
<span>Solving x = 9/2 , or x = 4.5 hours.

In order to solve this problem, we need to set up a proportion. I am setting the amount of calories in 10 ounces of grape juice equal to x.

We begin to solve this by cross multiplying.
8x = 1,100
To finish the problem, we divide both sides by 8.
x = 137.5, so the 10 ounce glass of grape juice will have 137.5 calories.
Divide the number of people by the number of plates per pack:
138 / 12 = 11.5
He need to buy 12 packs of plates to have enough.
