I assume the relationship is linear in the form y = mx +c
If (5,4) is on the line we can calculate the equation
gradient m = change in y over change in x, = 4/5
y = 4/5 * x +c
4 = 4/5 * 5 +c
c = 0
y = 4/5 x
Part a if x = 1 then y = 4/5
part b is 2 times (5,4) so 10 pounds of potatoes cost 8 dollers
