Answer:

<h2><u>#1: </u></h2>

The point (4,3) means that 4 lbs. of potatoes = $3. Therefore, we have:  

4 lbs / $3  = 1lb / x     = cross-multiply  

4x = 3   =  divide by 4  

x = 3/4 dollars = $.75 per pound

----------------------------------------------------  

<h2><u>#2: </u></h2>

The point (8,6) means that 8 lbs. of potatoes = $6.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope this helps!

Answer:

A proportional relationship between the number of pounds of potatoes (x) and the price in dollars (y) is graphed, and the ordered pair (4, 3) is on the graphed line. Part A: What is the price of 1 pound of potatoes? Show your work, including the proportion you used to determine the price. (8 points) Part B: What does the ordered pair (8, 6) on the graph represent? Explain in words. (2 points)

 

The point (4,3) means that 4 lbs. of potatoes = $3. Therefore, we have:

4 lbs / $3  = 1lb / x       cross-multiply

4x = 3      divide by 4

x = 3/4 dollars = $.75 per pound

 

The point (8,6) means that 8 lbs. of potatoes = $6.

How can the order of operations be used to simplify expressions?
Lapatulllka [165]
Order of Operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction), can help to simplify an equation by guiding you through the steps to solve it.

This is because it tells you to solve the parentheses. If there is none, but you've already done this, you solve for exponents, etc. 

The progressive soling of the equation not only makes it physically shorter, but also brings you closer to the answer.

Hope this helps, and I was the brainliest! :)

ipn [44]

Answer:

15 - √(x+2)

domain is any value as long as (x+2) is not-negative, since √ of a negative number has no Real solution.

x+2 ≥ 0 ⇒ x ≥ -2
