The ratio of butterflies to bees in Lucy's insect collection is 3 to 4. If there are 32 bees, how many butterflies would there be?

Im pretty sure 24  

Step-by-step explanation:

24:32

Step-by-step explanation:

When I saw that you wrote 'the ratios of BUTTERFLIES TO BEES' it tells me that I need to do the order of But. to Bees.  I saw you had 3:4, and you said, '32 bees' I know because of that, 32 bees needs to be the second.

I got my answer, by seeing 4x_=32.  I actually multiplied 4x8=32, and then multiplied 3x8 as well, to get 24.  Then I got my 24:32!

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
