Answer:
Slope Intercept Form: 2/3x + 5
Finding the x and y Intercepts: (-15/2 , 0)
A 33 pound bag of grass seed has = 2 pounds less than 5 smaller bags of seed
= 33 pounds = 2 pounds less than 5 smaller bags
Let the weight of smaller bag of seed be ' x ' . Then ,
= 33 = 5x - 2
= 5x -2 = 33
= 5x = 33 + 2 ( transposing -2 from LHS to RHS changes -2 into +2 )
= 5x = 35
= x = 35 ÷ 5 ( transposing ×5 from LHS to RHS changes ×5 to ÷5 )
= x = 7 = weight of smaller bag of seed
Then , the weight of smaller bag of seed will be 7 pounds . Let us check it by putting 7 in the place of x :
= ( 5 × 7 ) - 2 = 33
= 35 - 2 = 33
LHS = RHS
Therefore , the weight of of smaller bag of seed is 7 pounds .
Dived the price by the number of ounces and that should be your answer to the questions .
4 squared = 4^2 = 16. This can be approx. by rounding it up to 20 (which is the nearest hundredths place).
