Which equation represents a line that passes through (–9, –3) and has a slope of –6?

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

m - slope

The formula of a slope:

========================================

We have the slope m = -6 and the point (-9, -3).

Substitute:

Convert to the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):

          use the distributive property

        subtract 3 from both sides

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
