For a scavenger hunt, Jim's mom distributed a bag of 440 jelly beans evenly into 20 plastic containers and hid them around the yard. If, after the hunt, Jim has a total of 242 jelly beans, then how many of the plastic containers did he find?

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jim's mom distributed  a bag of 440 Jelly beans evenly in to 20 Plastic bags

i.e.each bag has  Jelly.

After the hunt, Jim has 242 Jelly. This much Jelly constitutes

Therefore, Jim has 11 bags of Jellys

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
