Tony gets paid $5 per hour to babysit his cousin. This weekend, he babysat on both Saturday and Sunday. He made a total of $55. Tony babysat for 6 hours on
Sunday. For how many hours did he babysit on Saturday?
Let x = hours spent babysitting on Saturday. Choose the equation and
solution steps that correctly represent this problem.

5 hours on Saturday

Step-by-step explanation:

x = hours

5x + 6(5) = 55

5x + 30 = 55

5x = 25

x = 5

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.
