u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w

146

step-by-step explanation:

we need to divide the number of toy dinosaurs, 156, by the number of brothers, 4:

in order to estimate, we can use compatible numbers:

156 ÷ 4

  ↓

160   ÷ 4 = 40        

the correct answer is a).
