20% of students prefer to go to the aquarium

50% of teachers prefer to go to the aquarium

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

8 students prefer the aquarium out of 40 students.

Set up an equation:

Variable x = percentage of students

8/40 = x/100

Cross multiply:

8 × 100 = 40 × x

800 = 40x

20 = x

Divide:

20%

Check your work:

40 students × 20%

Convert percentage into decimal:

40 × 0.20

8

8 students prefered the aquarium so this is correct!

2.

5 teachers prefer the aquarium out of 10 teachers.

Set up an equation:

Variable x = percentage of teachers

5/10 = x/100

5 × 100 = 10 × x

500 = 10x

50 = x

50%

Check your work:

10 × 0.50

5

Correct!

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)
