For Cecil's new act, his tightrope is 5 feet long. If he begins at point A, write two expressions that will make him end at point B. What do these expressions have in common? Explain why 5+2+(−2) is equivalent to (the same as) telling Cecil to move 5 feet to the right. Will 5+2+(−2)+2+(−2) get Cecil to point B? Will 5+2+(−2)+3+(−3)? How would you describe his movements in these cases?

the answer is 0.3175 hope that you ^w^

also you might actually want to put this picture up if you want people to solve it luckily i remember this question

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.
