1. the pie shop sells pies cut into 4 slices. tom is buying pies for his kids and
their friends, and thinks these slices are too big for them. he plans to cut each slice in half,
and give each kid one of these half-slices. if he has 6 kids and they have a total of 8 friends,
how many whole pies should he buy, and how many extra slices should he buy?

1 whole pie and 6 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you're dividing each slices into two, then you're multiplying the number of slices by 2 and you get 8 slices for one pie. So that feeds the 8 friends. Then you should just buy 6 extra slices for his kids.

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.

the ratio of balloons to tables is 5: 2 and the constant variation is 5.

the equation is y=5x
