Amy and Jade bought packages of gum. Amy bought a total of 48 pieces. Jade bought a total of 32 pieces. If each package had the same number of pieces, what would be the number of pieces in each package of gum?

i need to know how many packages they bought

Step-by-step explanation:

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)
