The linear equation that represents the scenario is 5x + 2.5y = 20
<h3>How to determine the equation?</h3>The given parameters are:
- Popcorn = $5 per bag
- Candy = $2.5 per bag i.e. half the price of pop corn
Let x represents popcorn and y represents candy.
So, we have:
5x + 2.5y = 20
The intercepts in this case are the maximum number of candy and popcorn Rhonda can buy

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 3 ways to find the other x intercept.
1) Polynomial Long Division.
Divide x^2 - 3x + 2 by the binomial x - 2, because by the Factor Theorem if a is a root of a polynomial then x - a is a factor of said polynomial.
2) Just solving for x when y = 0, by using the quadratic formula.
.
So the other x - intercept is at (1, 0)
3) Using Vietta's Theorem regarding the solutions of a quadratic
Namely, the sum of the solutions of a quadratic equation is equal to the quotient between the negative coefficient of the linear term divided by the coefficient of the quadratic term.
And the product between the solutions of a quadratic equation is just the quotient between the constant term and the coefficient of the quadratic term.
These relations between the solutions give us a brief idea of what the solutions should be like.
