<h2>Explanation:</h2>
The complete question is in a comment above. The statements says that:
- Sean wrote the equation
is the cost per pound.
- The equation show the relationships between the total cost, $9.25, and the number of pounds of pears.
So we are asked to write an write an equation to show the cost y of x pounds of pears. In other words, we need to write an equation such that y is given in terms of x, where x is the pounds of pears. So:
From the equation we can determine as:
So each pound costs $1.85. The equation tells us that 5 pounds of pears result costs $9.25. Then, by proportion:
So choosing the number of pounds as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, the table would be:
From the table we can know that the graph is a line. that passes through all these points. Since this line passes through the origin, then y varies directly as x (Direct Proportion).
Answer:
point-slope form
(standard form)
Let me know if you prefer another form.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line can be found using provided you are given two points on the line.
We are.
Now you can use that formula. But I really love to just line up the points vertically then subtract them vertically then put 2nd difference over 1st difference.
(4/5 , 1/5)
-( 1/2 , 3/2)
-----------------
3/10 -13/10
2nd/1st = is our slope.
So the following is point-slope form for a linear equaiton:
Plug in a point .
This gives:
I'm going to distribute:
Now I don't like these fractions so I'm going to multiply both sides by the least common multiply of 2,3, and 6 which is 6:
Add 26x on both sides:
Add 9 on both sides:
This is actually standard form of a line.
It can be simplified though.
Divide both sides by 2:
(standard form)
