Answer: (1st box) = 6 (2nd box) = 2 (3rd box) = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is definitely B
<span>You can check all the rates on the number line by finding the quotient between the top rate and the bottom rate given and make sure that all of your quotients are equal to the given rate. </span>
Y - 2 = -3/4 (x - 6)
y = -3/4 (x - 6) + 2
When, x = -2,
y = -3/4 (-2 - 6) + 2 = -3/4 (-8) + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8
One point is (-2, 8)
When, x = 2,
y = -3/4 (2 - 6) + 2 = -3/4 (-4) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5
Another point is (2, 5)
(5 Neighbors) x (($1.00 Box) + (? Plant) + ($3.00 Gloves)) = 42.50
5 x (1 + x + 3) = 42.50
Combine in parens.
5 x (4 + x) = 42.50
Distribute.
20 + 5x = 42.50
Subtract 20 from both sides.
5x = 22.50
Divide both sides by 5.
x = 4.50
Thats the cost of each plant.
Check.
5 x (1 + 4.50 + 3)
5 x 8.50 = 42.50
