Well, the x-intercept is at -4, that means, the graph touches the x-axis at -4, or when x = -4, what's the value of "y" when that happens?  well, if the graph touches the x-axis, the y-value has gone all the way down to 0, and thus y = 0, therefore the point at that x-intercept is ( -4, 0 )

so, what's the equation of a line that passes through (-3,2) and (-4,0)?

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ -3}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})\quad 
%   (c,d)
&({{ -4}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{0-2}{-4-(-3)}\implies \cfrac{0-2}{-4+3}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-2}{-1}\implies 2
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-2=2[x-(-3)]
\\\\\\
y-2=2(x+3)\implies y-2=2x+6\implies y=2x+8

Trenton and Maria record how much dry food their pets eat on average each day.• Trenton's pet: 4/5 cup of dry food• Maria's pet:
Phoenix [80]

6.3 many more cups of dry food will Maria's pet have eaten than Trenton's pet will have eaten over 2 seven-day weeks

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , Trenton and Maria record how much dry food their pets eat on average each day.• Trenton's pet: 4/5 cup of dry food• Maria's pet: 1.25 cups of dry food. Based on these averages . We need to find  how many more cups of dry food will Maria's pet have eaten than Trenton's pet will have eaten over 2 seven-day weeks . We need to find how much they eat for 14 days as:

Trenton's pet: 4/5 cup of dry food•

With 4/5 per day , for 14 days :

⇒ 14(\frac{4}{5} )

⇒ 14(0.8 )

⇒ 11.2

Maria's pet: 1.25 cups of dry food.

With 1.25 per day , for 14 days :

⇒ 14(1.25 )

⇒ 17.5

Subtracting Maria's - Trenton's :

⇒ 17.5-11.2=6.3

That means , 6.3 many more cups of dry food will Maria's pet have eaten than Trenton's pet will have eaten over 2 seven-day weeks
