Abuilder uses 32 wooden slats to make 4 fence panels. fatima wants to know how many slats are needed for 1 panel. gerard wants to know how many slats he will need to make 8 panels. drag an expression to answer each question.

An expression that can be used to answer both questions is: 8x, where 'x' represents the number of panels.  

Step-by-step explanation:

If a builder uses 32 wooden slats to make 4 fence panels, then we would divide 32/4 to get 8 slats per panel.  In order for anyone to find the total number of slats they would need for the number of panels they want, they can assign a variable, such as 'x' to represent the number of panels.  Since we know we need 8 slats per panel, our expression can be 8x, where 'x' is the number of panels.  So, if Fatima wants 1 panel, she would substitute 1 for 'x' and get 8 x 1 = 8.  If Gerard wants 8 panels, he would subsitute 8 for 'x' and get 8 x 8 = 64.

y=-2.5x+12.5

step-by-step explanation:

5y=2x+10

y=0.4x+2

slope=-2.5

5=-2.5*3+b

b=12.5
