Does it specify what equation it needs to be in? Like function notation, slope intercept, etc etc.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea...?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no it doesn't. it just asks
"How many acres can be fertilized with 1370 gallons of fertilizer"
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wouldn't it be division?
OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah. It would so that would be 1370/5 = 274
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because 5 gal=1 acre
so it would be 1acre/5gal = x/1370 gal right?
so it is 274
OpenStudy (anonymous):
or something like that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if you divide thats your answer 274
OpenStudy (teddyiswatshecallsme):
