A line has a slop of 2 and passes through the point -12,8

Answers

The function of the line would be best represented by y=mx+b where m = slope and b = y intercept.
To find this we can put it into the slope-intercept form of y-y1=m(x-x1)

Which is:
y-8=2(x+12)
y=2x+24+8
y=2x+32
Hope that helps!

y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept

slope=2
y=2x+b
solve for b by inputing
(-12,8)
(x,y)
x=-12 and y=8 is one solution
input -12 for x and 8 for y

8=2(-12)+b
8=-24+b
add 24 to both sides
32=b

y=2x+32

Four fifth of a number is more than three fourth of the number by 4. Find the number

Answers

Let the unknown number be x then given,

(4/5)x - (3/4)x = 4

(16x - 15x)/20 = 4

x/20 = 4

x=80

Let the number be n.

Four fifths of the number is 4n/5.

Three fourths of the number is 3n/4.

Four fifths of a number is more than three fourths of the number by 4.

4n/5 = 3n/4 + 4

20 * 4n/5 = 20 * 3n/4 + 20 * 4

16n = 15n + 80

n = 80

Let's check.

4/5 of 80 = 4/5 * 80 = 64

3/4 of 80 = 3/4 * 80 = 60

64 is indeed 4 more than 60 showing that 4/5 of 80 is 4 more than 3/4 of 80, so 80 is correct.

Answer: 80

Mrs. Jones decided to buy some pencils for her class. She bought 6 packages of pencils, and each package contained 38 pencils. There are 19 students in her class and she divided up the pencils so that each student had the same amount of pencils. If there were no pencils left over, how many pencils did each student get?25
2
114
12

Answers

The answer: 12 pencils.

The process: 6 packages of pencils x 38 pencils each = 228 pencils total

228 / 19 students = 12 pencils per student!

12, each package was enough for a student to have 2, times 6 packages would equal 12
