(a) how much potting soil he bought last week
(b) 28 = 2p + 4
(c) 28 = 2p + 4....subtract 4 from both sides
28 - 4 = 2p...simplify
24 = 2p...divide both sides by 2
24/2 = p....simplify
12 = p......12 solves the equation
(d) He bought 12 lbs of potting soil last week
$313.80
for forty hours she got paid $288
and for the final 15, she got $28.80
y= 1/2x +2
if x=0 y=2 (0,2)
if x=2 y = 1/2 *2 +2 =1+2 =3 (2,3)
you now have two points so you can plot the line
10% of 140 is 14 so just add 14 to 140
140+14=154.
