Answer:

Total pounds of spinach = 5 pounds

Pounds used for salad = 0.5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Total spinach = x

She used pan of spinach pie for a party = 3/5x

Remaining spinach = x - 3/5x

= 5x-3x/5

= 2/5x

She used 3/4 of the remaining spinach for a pan for her family

3/4 of 2/5x

= 3/4 × 2/5x

= 6/20x

= 3/10x

she used the rest to make a salad.

Salad = x - (3/5)x - (3/10)x

= (1 - 3/5 - 3/10)x

= (10-6-3/10)x

= 1/10x

If rose used 3 pounds of spinach to make the pan of spinach pie for the party how many pounds of spinach did rose use to make the saled

She used pan of spinach pie for a party = 3/5x

3/5x = 3 pounds

Divide both sides by 3/5

x = 3 ÷ 3/5

= 3 × 5/3

x = 5 pounds

Salad = 1/10x

= 1/10 * 5

= 5/10

= 0.5 pounds

Equation of the line that passes through the points -1,10.5 and 0,4.5
Elanso [62]

Answer: y = -6x + 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

to put it into slope intercept form use the standard form y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

First, we have to find the slope

the slope is found using (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

so you have 10.5-4.5 over -1-0 or 6 over -1

So the slope is -6

Second, we have to use a given Y value for the intercept

y = -6x + 4.5
