Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Jonah sister is 10 years old. Jonah is 8 years younger than twice hos sister age
j = 2s - 8
this is the equation.
You can solve it by substituting in 10 for s, because sister is 10 years old.
Answer:
y+5=-3/4(x+6)
or in slope intercept
y= -3/4x-38/4
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation of a line we must have a slope and a point. To find the slope we use the slope formula and substitute (x,y) points in it as shown below:

Now that we have the slope, plug in the slope and choose one point to plug into the point slope formula. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.
(y--5)=-3/4(x--6)
y+5=-3/4(x+6)
y+5=-3/4x-18/4
y=-3/4x-18/4-20/4
y= -3/4x-38/4
It is helpful to write them in different ways
some ways to write them are
1.fractions
2.decimals
3.squareroots (if applicable)
so it would be more helpful in an equation to leave 6/7 in fractional form if you are going to manipulate it more, because 0.857142857142... is much harder to keep track of than 6/7
and sometimes, they want a percent which is easier to convert to from decimal form than from fractinoal form so ex 0.857142857142...=85.7% vs 6/7 to percent
sometimes there will be square roots and they are easier if left like that ex
√2=1.4142135623...
it would be easier to leav it in square root
it depends on the equation you are trying to solve, because different forms have different pros and cons, some are easier to work with in a certain form but not in another, sometimes, you will need to change between multipule forms during the same problem
Answer:
50 coins
Step-by-step explanation:
if there is 1/5 more 1 dollar coins than quarters that means 1/5 of the total number is equal to 10, and if 1/5 is 10 that means 5*10=50 is the total number
