7. Next year, you and your friend want to have a larger fundraiser. You can rent more chairs, but you do not want to buy more centerpieces, instead using the 48 balloons, 24 flowers, and 36 candles you already have. Your friend is trying to figure out the maximum number of identical tables you can have for the larger fundraiser next year. Without knowing the exact number of people who will attend, tell your friend the largest number of tables you can have next year if you want identical centerpieces and do not have to use all of the items. Explain to your friend how you know that your answer is correct. * Your answer

yes

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
