----------------------------------------------------------- Make y the subject : ----------------------------------------------------------- y - 3 = 4(x + 8) y - 3 = 4x + 32 // Apply distributive property y = 4x + 35 // Add 3 to both sides
----------------------------------------------------------- Find a point on the line : ----------------------------------------------------------- When x = 0, y = 4(0) + 35 // Sub x = 0 into the equation y = 35 // Combine like terms Point = (0, 35)
----------------------------------------------------------- Answers : (a) Slope = 4 (b) One point on the line is (0, 35) -----------------------------------------------------------
<h2>Independent variable: Weight of Onions.</h2><h2>Dependent variable: Total Cost.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The given table is about the weight of onions in pounds and the total cost.
If you think this through, you would notice that the total cost depends on the number of pounds of onions. That means the independent variable is Weight of Onions and the dependent variable is the Total Cost.
