Let a be an apple, b be a baseball, p be a pineapple and s be a shoe.
Then, from the balance, we model these equations:
p + b = s ----- (1)
2s = 4a
Divide both sides by 2.
s = 2a
Substitute in (1), we get,
p + b = 2a ----- (2)
Also,
p = a + b ----- (3)
Substitute the above in (2), we get,
(a + b) + b = 2a
a + 2b = 2a
Subtract a from both sides.
a = 2b
Substitute in (3), we get,
p = 2b + b = 3b
Hence, 3 baseballs equal one pineapple.
Hey! :)
So when we write something in slope intercept form, all we're doing is solving for y. So let's do that with this equation!
-2x + y = 9
add 2x to both sides
y = 2x + 9
So C is your answer.

Answer:
She will use 5/6 pound for the entire garden
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to know the total number of pounds that will be used for the full garden.
Firstly, she used 1/2 or 0.5 pound for 3/5 of the garden, let the total amount of pound she will use for the full garden be x.
0.5 pound = 3/5 garden
x pound = 1 garden
x * 3/5 = 0.5 * 1
x * 3/5 = 0.5
3x/5 = 0.5
3x = 5 * 0.5
3x = 2.5
x = 2.5/3 or 5/6 pound
