-the total amount of money in the cash register, y, containing $50 in change and small bills and x $100 bills
-the total number of puzzle pieces, y, in a brand new 50-piece puzzle, and x brand-new 100-piece puzzles
-the total weight of the barbell, y, where the bar weighs 50 pounds and x 100-pound weights are added to it

Answer 2

Answer : D

From the given graph,

x represents the ounces of salad dressing

y represents the total number of calories

From the graph , y intercept is 50

Now we find slope using any two points from the graph

Pick any two points

(0.5,100) (1.5,200)

`slope = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) =(200-100)/(1.5-0.5) =100`

slope = 100 that is 100 calories per ounce

y intercept = 50 that means 50 calories topped

So, answer is the total number of calories, y, in a salad with vegetables containing 50 calories topped with x ounces of salad dressing at 100 calories per ounce
