3 l4w-1l -5 = 1

w = 3/4 or w = -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3l4w - 1l - 5 = 1

Add 5 to both sides.

3|4w - 1| = 6

Divide both sides by 3.

|4w - 1| = 2

Set the inside of the absolute value equal to 2 and -2.

4w - 1 = 2 or 4w - 1 = -2

Add 1 to both sides.

4w = 3 or 4w = -1

Divide both sides by 4.

w = 3/4 or w = -1/4

Check w = 3/4:

3l4w - 1l - 5 = 1

3|4(3/4) - 1| - 5 = 1

3|3 - 1| - 5 = 1

3|2| - 5 = 1

6 - 5 = 1

1 = 1

w = 3/4 works.

Check w = -1/4:

3l4w - 1l - 5 = 1

3|4(-1/4) - 1| - 5 = 1

3|-1 - 1| - 5 = 1

3|-2| - 5 = 1

3(2) - 5 = 1

6 - 5 = 1

1 = 1

w = -1/4 works.

There are no extraneous solutions.

w = 3/4 or w = -1/4

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.
