Answer:

He estimated there were about $10.40 worth of groceries

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to round the prices up to the nearest tenth and then add them all.

3.50

3.50

1.15

1.15

1.15

___

10.45

So 10.45 is closest to 10.40 and you have to remeber that this is just an estimate so it will be less because we rounded the answer up.

Hope this helps

Answer:

$9 its be heres my work

Step-by-step explanation:

Gallon of milk: $3.49

3lbs oranges: $1.14(3) = $3.42

Box of cereal: $3.46

Front end estimation is taking the number in front and the rest of the numbers coming after it will be zeroes.

Using front end estimation:

$3.49 => $3.00

$3.42 => $3.00

$3.46 => $3.00

Add all these up; Shen estimated the total cost of the groceries would be $9.00.

Write each equation in slope-intercept form (3,4); and (-6,-2)
Alborosie

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Given 2 points you can find the slope using (y-y1)/(x-x1)

m = (-2-4)/(-6-3) = -6/-9 = 2/3

To find b use one of the points and m and plug into the slope intercept form and then solve for b.

y=mx+b

4=2/3(3) + b

4=2 + b

b=2

Now we can write the final equation as : (plug m and b back in)

y = 2/3x + 2
