x = 1/10
Because 1/10 * 1/10 = 1/100

Answer:
y = 1/4 x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation of a line, find from the line the slope and y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis which here is at point (0,-2).
The slope of the line is found by writing a ratio between the vertical distance and the horizontal distance between points.
Slope is 1/4.
Substitute m = 1/4 and b = -2 into the slope intercept form y = mx + b.
y = 1/4 x - 2
If seeds are 8 per pound then you need to find the unit rate and make a proportion with how much she spent. So you can make a ratio of 1(pound) / $8 compared to x(pounds) / $10. Then, cross-multiply.
10 = 8x. Divide both sides by 8
10/ 8 = x Simplify the fraction
1 1/4 = x
So, she bought 1 1/4 pounds of seeds
You divide each side of the equation by 'a', and you immediately have
the value of 'x' in terms of 'a and 'b'.
