PLEASE help me at 1 B

a = 1, b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You have worked out part (a) correctly, that is

0.7575... = =

(b)

+ =

=  

Multiply numerator/ denominator of by 2, thus

= , then

= , thus

6a + 11b = 50

Choose a = 1 ( a positive integer ), then

6(1) + 11b = 50

6 + 11b = 50 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

11b = 44 ( divide both sides by 11 )

b = 4

a = 1, b = 4, so

+ =

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.
