Answer:

y=0.75x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be this equation because you start at 5, which is the y-intercept, then you add 0.75 for every pound of apples. So on a graph you would start at 5 on the y-line then go up by 0.75

Which equation is equivalent to √x^2+81 = x+10

jeka57 [31]

Keywords:

<em>equation, operations, equivalent, binomial, square root </em>

For this case we have an equation in which we must apply operations to rewrite it in an equivalent way. We must start by raising both sides of the equation to the square. Thus, we eliminate the square root of the left side of equality and finally solve the binomial of the right side of equality.

So we have:

$\sqrt {x ^ 2 + 81} = x + 10\\(\sqrt {x ^ 2 + 81}) ^ 2 = (x + 10) ^ 2\\x ^ 2 + 81 = (x + 10) ^ 2$
