that question doesnt make sense!
If y varies directly as the square of x, that means that y=k*x^2. Plugging y=100 and x=5 into it, we get 100=k*5^2=k*25. Dividing by both sides, we get k=100/25=4. Going back to the original equation, we now know that y=4*x^2. Plugging 9=x in, we get 4*9^2=4*81=324=y
A. -5x + 3y = 15 is your answer. this is because the slope is 5/3 and the y-intercept is 5 so you plot those onto the graph and this shows it.
hope this helps, God bless!
She could have taken the price and number of pounds and divided the price by two until she had the price for one of oranges. that is all i know, i hope it helps.
