B: (0, a)
C should have the same y value as B
D: (a,0)
C should have the same x value as D
So point C is (a,a)
Since point A is on the origin, its point is (0,0)
You use the slope formula and plug in point A and C:
m = 1
So the value that belongs in the green box is 1
Answer:
4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I subtracted the cost of the first pound from the final product (3.73 - 2.38) and I got 1.35. I then divided the 1.35 by .45 (the 45 cents) to figure out how many more pounds the package was from the initial 1 pounds. 1.35/.45 is 3, plus the 1 pound from the beginning makes 4 pounds in total.
