Answer 1

Answer:

1200 > 42x+400

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine the equation of the line for the number of lilac bushes versus area

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (484-442)/(2-1)

  = 42/1

 = 42  square ft per lilac bush

Using point slope form of a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-442 = 42(x-1)

Distribute

y-442 =42x-42

Add 442 to each side

y-442+442 = 42x-42+442

y = 42x+400

This is the equation of the line

Ryan has less than 1200 square feet so our equation must be less than 1200 square feet

1200 > 42x+400
