15 people = 9 lbs pasta

1 people = 9/15 lbs. pasta

So, for 76 people = 9/15 * 76 = 45.6 lbs pasta

9/15 = x/76......9 lbs to 15 ppl = x lbs to 76 ppl
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(15)(x) = (9)(76)
15x = 684
x = 684/15
x = 45.6.....u should bring 45.6 lbs of pasta salad for 76 people

Given :-

A graph is given to us .

To Find :-

The equation in slope intercept form .

Answer :-

From the given graph , we can see that the line passes through y axis at (0,5) . So the y intercept is 5 . And the slope of the line is 5/2 = 2.5 . So ,

$\sf\longrightarrow$ y intercept = 5 .

$\sf\longrightarrow$ slope = 5/2 .

Now here we can use the slope intercept form as ,

$\sf\longrightarrow$ y = mx + c

$\sf\longrightarrow$ y = 5/2x + 5

Hence the required answer is y = 5/2x + 5.
