Three friends go grocery shopping together, and each guys the same kinds of strawberries. Akio buys 2 pounds and pays 1.50. Gordon buys 3 pounds and pays 2.25. Maria buys 4 pounds and pays 3.00.

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit price for the strawberries is:

= 1.5 / 2

= $0.75 per pound

Graph B is the right graph as it uses a unit price of $0.75 per pound for strawberry price. This is why it has points of the graph that mirror the friends purchases such as (2, 1.5) , (3, 2.5) and (4, 3).

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
