Question 2
1 pts
Maria and Ben are each getting ready for the start of the school year. Maria has
ten more pencils than Ben. Let m represent the number of Maria's pencils.
Write an expression for the number of Ben's pencils.

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.

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.

.there can be infinite values of m and n that can satisfy the above equation. for each value of m of m or n. there maybe infinite sets of solution for the above
