An equation that correctly represent this relationship if x represents the number of pounds of fertilizer and y the number of ounces of weed killer is 0.5x + 3.5y = 70
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that, Bill spent 70 on fertilizer and weed killer for his lawn
Each pound of fertilizer cost 50 cents and each once of weed killer cost 3.50
We have to write an equation, if x represents the number of pounds of fertilizer and y the number of ounces of weed killer.
Now,<em> total amount = amount for fertilizers + amount for weed killers.</em>
Total amount = number of pounds of fertilizers x cost per pound + number of ounces of weed killer x cost per ounce.
Hence, the equation is 0.5x + 3.5y = 70
Answer:
+15
Step-by-step explanation:
An increase is generally regarded as being positive. If units are dollars, an increase of $15 can be represented by the integer +15.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If units are dimes, then the number would be +150. So, you see, <em>the units are important </em>to know.
It also depends on <em>what is increasing</em> and what is being represented by the integer. If it is an increase in debt, then the change in net worth might be -15.

Answer: Choice D) 3.7 * 10^6</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Place a decimal point between the first two digits 3 and 7.
Now ask yourself how you can go from 3.7 back to the original value. Notice we can move the decimal point 6 spots to the right to go from 3.7 back to 3,700,000
Therefore, the exponent over the 10 is 6. The exponent is positive to mean we move the decimal point to the right. If we had a negative exponent, then we'd move left.
You can use a calculator to confirm that 3.7 * 10^6 = 3,700,000

Side notes:
3,700,000 = 3 million, 7 hundred thousand
3,700,000 = 3.7 million
Answer:
10 years ago
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of years ago
x years ago,
Sonu's grandmother was 80 - x
Sonu was 20 - x
x years ago,
the grandmother was 7 times as old as Sonu
80 - x = 7(20 - x)
80 - x = 140 - 7x
6x = 60
x = 10
