-3x-2.5=y would be an equivalent to that equation
He ate 1 - 6/8 which is 2/8, or 1/4 of an orange.
<span>f(x) = (x – 4)(x + 4) = x^2 - 4. This is the equation of a parabola with vertex at (0,-4) and x-intercepts of (-2,0) and (2,0). The midpoint of the line segment connecting these 2 points is (0,0). Draw this situation and see for yourself!

<span>88 stamps -------------------- > $15.56
A------------------------------>number of </span>stamps ------------ ><span>25 cent
B----------------------------- > </span>number of stamps ------------ >2 cent
A+B=88------------------ > A=88-B
0.25A+.02B=15.56
resolving
0.25(88-B)+0.02B=15.56
22-0.25B+0.02B=15.56
-0.23B=-6.44----------------------- > B=28 stamps of 2 cent
A=88-B-- >88-28=60------------- > A=60 stamps of 25 cent
You'd have 25 6/8 yards of wire left because she took 3 yards from each spool. So that gives us 2 spools of 12 7/8 and when you add them you get 25 6/8.
