Answer:

y=0.5x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

x-2y=8

2y=x-8

y=0.5x-4 m1=0.5

m1=m2=0.5 - the slope for parallel lines are equaly

y=m2x+b

-6=0.5*2+b

b=-7

The results of joes survey show that baseball is the favorite sport for 18 out of 25 people. What percent do not like sports?

charle [14.2K]

well if 18 out of 25 like it, then the remaining 7 doesn't like it, namely 7 out of 25.

if we take 25 to be the 100%, what is 7 off of if in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 25&100\\ 7&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{25}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 25x=700\implies x=\cfrac{700}{25}\implies x=28$
