You first have to turn 2x + 4y = -8 into y = mx + b before graphing. To do this, you subtract 2x from the left side of the equation because inverse operations. This will bring 2x to the right side. Now, you will have 4 = -2x + 8. However, you cannot have a number with y. Therefore, you must divide -8 and 2 by 4. You will get y = -1/2 x + 2 as your equation.
To graph -1/2x + 2, you must remember rise/run. Since it is NEGATIVE -1/2, your slope will go downwards (1 down, 2 across) starting from y = 2.
Carlita was either sipping the hot chocolate while she was out, or else
approximating the numbers. The exact number she reported is not
possible. To see why, I'll do it strictly by the math:
Robins = 5 times
Cardinals = 1 time
Total birds = 6 times
6 times = 25 birds
Divide each side by 6 : 1 time = 25/6 = 4-1/6 birds
Robins = 5 times = 20-5/6 of them
Cardinals = 1 time = 4-1/6 of them
Total: (20-5/6) + (4-1/6) = 25 birds.
How many more robins than cardinals = (20-5/6) - (4-1/6) = 16-2/3 more.
The math works out fine. But if the numbers she reported are true,
then some of what she saw was partial birds ... legs, or feathers,
things like that. Eeeew. I don't want to talk about it.

The question gives you the fact that 6 bricks is 2 feet high.
What do you do to get from 2 to 20?
You multiply by 10.
Since you multiplied one thing by 10, you must do it to the other side so it remains balanced.
2 ft x 10ft = 20ft
6 bricks x 10 bricks = 60 bricks
Due to the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem, we know that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle equals 180 degrees, therefore,
180 = m<1 + m<2 + m<3
180 - m<3 = m<1 + m<2
But, we also know that m<4 + m<3 = 180 degrees.
180 = m<3 + m<4
180 - m<3 = m<4
Both m<4 and m<1 + m<2 equals 180 - m<3
m<4 = m<1 + m<2
