A restaurant chef made 1 1/4 pints of mushroom soup. Each bowl of soup holds 5/8 of a pint. How many bowls of soup will the chef be able to fill?

2 bowls of soup

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make 1 1/4 an improper fraction

1 1/4 = 5/4

2. Then divide 5/4 by 5/8 (KCF - Keep the 5/4 - Change the division sign to multiplication - 'Flip' 5/8 to 8/5)

5/4 x 8/5 = 40/20

3. Simplify the fraction (divide the numerator and denominator by 20)

40/20 = 2

4. Final

2 (bowls of soup)

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
