The table lists the total number of bags of grass seed it took to plant a certain number of lawns. All of the lawns were the same size. Which equation represents the relationship between n, the number of lawns, and b, the number of bags of grass seed? (1 point) • b = 5n • b = 5.5n • b = n + 18 • b = n + 22

Try the data in each equation. Each line of data is a point. If a point works in an equation, keep trying more points in the same equation. If all points work in one equation, that is your answer. If at least one point does not work with an equation, move on to the next equation.

The points are: (n, b) (4, 22) (5, 27.5) (6, 33) (7, 38.5) (8, 44)

so would it be D?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The first point is (4, 22) That means that n = 4 and b = 22 Try choice D. b = n + 22 Is 22 = 4 + 22 a true equation?
