Soup cost 10 for 3 cans. josh spent $40 on soup. how many can did he buy

He bought 12 cans of soup

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve this problem.

$10            $40

=

3 cans        x cans

Using cross products

10* x = 3 * 40

10x = 120

Divide by 10

10x/10 = 120/10

x = 12

1/8 3/16 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

you put them as all the same denominator and multiply

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
