Kelly and Greta are asked to write an equation for the scenario below. “One person was able to plant 4 trees in the same amount of time that 5 people working together were able to plant 20 trees.”

The girls agree that x represents the number of people working and y represents the number of trees planted. Kelly wrote the equation y = one-fourth x, and Greta wrote the equation y = 4 x. Which person is correct, and why?

y=4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Cuz in short, if x is one, y is four, if x is 5, y is 20

Thereford only y=4x is suitable

Greta is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable that is lower in each scenario is the variable that should have a coefficient (unless there are fractions).  Greta's equation makes sense because it's saying that in order for the # of trees to = the # of people, you need to multiply x by 4, or 4x.

answer: 4 meters

step-by-step explanation: to you understand 2/3 better you can do 1 divided by 3 = . then multiply that by the 2 which is .66666666666666667 then you would do 6 x .66666666666666667 which is 4.      

hope this .

126 maybe. sorry
