Answer:
y = -2x + 8 is the answer to the question
Since the average is the sum divided by the count, the sum is the average times the count.
So the sum of the weights of the watermelons is 10(4.3)=43 pounds.
The sum of the weights of the pumpkins are 5(3.4)=17 pounds
The sum of the weight of the fruits is 43+17=60 pounds
Dividing by 15 fruits gives an average item weight of 60/15 = 4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation
y = 2x - 3
Comparing with y = mx + c
y - intercept (c) = -3

There are two possibilities, and we don't know which situation is true.
<em>#1).</em> School is in the middle, between home and grandparents.
Home --------- 3/8 ----------- School --------- 2/8 ------- Grandparents .
If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks
(3/8 + 2/8 + 2/8 + 3/8) = 10/8 = <u>1.25 miles</u> .
===========================================
<em>#2):</em> Grandparents house is in the middle, between home and school.
Tasha passes by them on her way to school, and stops there to visit
on her way back home.
Home ------- 1/8 ------- Grandparents ---------- 2/8 ---------- School
If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks
(3/8 + 2/8 + 1/8) = 6/8 = <u>3/4 mile</u> .
