The correct answer is y=4x-1
Plug in the values of the ordered pairs into the equations.
41 = 5(8) + 1
41 = 40 + 1
41 = 41
So, A y = 5x + 1 is the answer.

Mistake D. The response from seniors was reversed.
Let's translate each sentence into "Math".
Pineapple = p
Orange = x
is means equal
Pineapple is 7 times as heavy as an orange: p = 7x
Pineapple weighs 870 grams more than orange. p = 870 + x
Substitute p = 7x into the second equation:
7x = 870 + x
Subtract x from both sides
6x = 870
divide by 6
x = 145
The orange weighs 145 grams.
The pineapple weights 7 times the orange = 7(145) = 1015 grams.
