Answer:
13000
Step-by-step explanation:
1 = 2,000 pounds
0.5 tons = 1000 pounds
The correct answer is A) y = -3x - 1
In order to find this, start by using the two points on the line to find the slope.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-4 - 2)/(1 - -1)
m = -6/2
m = -3
Since A is the only one with a -3 slope, this is the correct answer.
Let x equal the number of strawberries while y is the total amount of money she had.
The equation is: 2.25(x)+8.75=y.
Then, if she bought 4 pounds of strawberries, it would work as follows: 2.25(4)+8.75 is the total amount. That means 9+8.75 would be the total. Thus, the amount of money she started out with was 17.75 dollars.
