Hello!
The Correct Answer would be:
"1.25 Pounds"
Why? Well:
1 ounce (oz) is equal to 0.0625 pounds (lb).
1 oz = (1/16) lb = 0.0625 lb
The mass m in pounds (lb) is equal to the mass m in ounces (oz) divided by 16:
m(lb) = m(oz) / 16
So as Result, The Answer is 1.25 Pounds.
Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
Hi!
We can use <u>point-slope form </u>to solve this.

<em> and </em>
<em> will be from one of the points.</em>
<u>First, we have to find </u>
<u>, the slope. We can use the slope equation to get this.</u>

<em>Plug in your points:</em>

Your slope is 
<u><em>Now plug points and slope into point-slope equation. We will use (8, 4).</em></u>

Now, if you want to get it into y = mx + b form, you have to solve for y:



Your equation is
