Joleen and Pablo want to fertilize a rectangular garden with an area of A square feet. They know that 5 cups of
fertilizer will cover an area of 240 square feet. They each
write an equation to represent the relationship between
the area, A, and the number of cups of fertilizer, c
Joleen's equation: A = 48C
Pablo's equation: c = LA
48
Which of the equations is correct? Explain how you know.

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).

step-by-step explanation:

sorry i just needed points for a quiz plz for give me

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
