the intersecting point of the two lines is (2.2999999,4.1)
There are 16 oz per 1 lb. multiply 10 by 16 (to convert your lbs into oz) =160. Then divide that by 8 (to figure out how many 8oz bags it would fill) =20 bags. Or since each bag you want to fill is half a lb multiply the number of lbs by 2, which would also give you 20 :)
We know that
<span>The absolute value of a number is its size. For positive numbers the size is the same as the number. For negative numbers it is the corresponding positive number.

in this problem
<span>|-8|</span>=8
