Question

Suppose that there are some spiders in a tank and each spider has 8 legs

x=the number of spiders
y=the total number of legs on all the spiders

Which equation is correct

a. x-87
b. y=x/8
c. x=y/8
d. y=8x

Answer 1

d. y=8x

Explanation:

since y = the number of legs and spiders = x

each spider has 8 legs

so y = 8*x

which is y=8x
