the difference between a full jug and a jug that is half full will give us the weight of the marbles only in a half full jug:
4 - 2.6 = 1.4 kg

In a half full jug that weighs 2.6 kg, the weight of the marbles is 1.4 kg 
the weight of the jug = 2.6 - 1.4 = 1.2 kg

Answer:

The jug weights empty 1.2 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we can define two equations based on the description to find the weight of the empty jug, this is:

Eq. 1: Jug+\frac{1}{2} Marbles=2.6

Eq. 2: Jug+Marbles=4

Now putting the Eq. 2 in the Eq. 1 we have:

Jug+\frac{1}{2} (4-Jug)=2.6

Clearing Jug:

\frac{1}{2}Jug=2.6-2

Jug=0.6*2

Jug=1.2

The jug weights empty 1.2 kg.

14 x 3/4 = 42/4 = 10.5 lbs
1 lb = 450 g...so 10.5 lbs = (10.5 x 450) = 4725 g.....1 g = 0.001 kg....so 4725 grams = (4725 x .001) = 4.725 kg

so ur gonna need a medium sized turkey.....4.725 kg...at 5.99 per kg =
(4.725 x 5.99) = $ 28.30 <==

One way is to type it into your trusty TI and use the table from presing stat and then stat againg then calc then 4
so the equation that I got from your set of points is y=1.983333333333333x+0.80555555555
