To solve for the weights of dates and pomegranates that a customer could buy with $12, we need to set up an equation. Since dates cost $4.00 per pound and pomegranates cost $2.75 per pound, we can write the equation as:
4d + 2.75p = 12
Therefore, the correct equation in standard form is:
4d + 2.75p = 12
As for the x- and y-intercept of the line x - 6y = 12, first let's find the x-intercept where y = 0:
x - 6(0) = 12
x = 12
So, the x-intercept is 12.
Then, let's find the y-intercept where x = 0:
0 - 6y = 12
-6y = 12
y = -2
So, the y-intercept is -2.
Therefore, the x-intercept is 12 and the y-intercept is -2.
The grocery store sells dates for $4.00 a pound and pomegranates for $2.75 a pound. Choose an equation in standard form for the weights of dates d and pomegranates p that a customer could buy with $12.
