A bucket of sand weighed 3 pounds. Then Eloise added another 20 ounces of sand to the bucket. How much does the bucket of sand weigh now?

1.4 1/4 lb
2.4 1/2 lb
3.5 1/4 lb
4.5 1/2lb

The bucket now weights 4.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

20 ounces=1.25 pounds

1.25+3= 4.25 pounds

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
