Let us start with something we know is true.
5 > 3
That reads as 5 is greater than 3. Anyone will tell you that that is a true statement.
But what happens when you multiply this result by - 10
5 * -10 > 3 * - 10
- 50 > - 30 is that true? If you are not sure, think it terms of money. Which would you rather be
owing 50 dollars to some or owing 30 dollars to someone? Of course if you are careful with money you would likely say neither. But this is math so you have to choose.
You likely would have to say you would want to owe 30 dollars. That makes - 30 larger than - 50. So a true statement has now become a false one. Check with me if you don't understand. I'd like to know if you accept my explanation.
Answer:
Well to this you would have to simplify the ratio first
75:35:45
That can be
15:7:9
So that means thayt each troop would get 15 enegery bars, 7 drinks and 9 bottles of water
Well if you were to keep repeating that process or just do a proportion you would get 5 total troops.
15:7:9
75:35:45
15*5 is 75
7*5 is 35
9*5=45
So 5 troops
Y-intercept, it can be described as y-intercept form, or another way of writing it in mathematical form is y=mx+b, this can be used to draw polygons, find ortho-centers (very difficult), etc. m is the rise/run, rise over run, or 1/2. The rise and the run is the rate of change. b is the starting point or slope where it starts at, that is most of it!
