a word problem with a constant, a coefficient, a variable, and a final amount…please…it’s 2am and I’m stressing

Henry had 12 cans of Xtreme diet soda, if he drinks 2 sodas each hour and ends up with 8 cans at the end of the day, how many hours did he drink?

Step-by-step explanation:

12-2h=y

y=8 and your final amount

h = hrs and your variable

12 is your constant! he only has 12 cans, which cannot change

2 is your coefficient, but you can change it to whatever you want

If you need clarification let me know!

d

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.
