Martha needs 22.25 strawberries for every 5 smoothies she makes. complete the table to see how many strawberries she would need to make 10 smoothies and 20 smoothies.

An equation representing lyle’s hedge-trimming business is a = 12n - 300 where a is the amount of profit or loss in dollars and n is the number of hedges trimmed. how would the graph of lyle’s business change if the equation a = 10n - 300 represented his business? the graph would be flatter. the graph would be steeper. the graph would start closer to the origin. the graph would start lower on the y-axis.

Does anyone know how to solve and graph this: 4 + | a + 2 | < 7the only part i don't get is the "4 +"
