So, Seth has 18 more sweets than Frank, yet theres only 3 number difference in the ratio, 4:5:7   (4:5) 3 number difference, 18/3= 6

add the ratios = 4+5+7= 16
1 number = 6 so 
4x6= 24
5x6=30
7x6=42

Frank gets 24 sweets
Mary gets 30 sweets
Seth gets 42 sweets

The total number of sweets they shared is 24+30+42= 96
The share 96 sweets altogether. 

The check your answer; do 42-24= 18

Therefore, now we know that the difference between Seth and Frank's amount of sweets is 18.

Therefore, this is correct.

Each number in the ratio 4:5:7 is worth 6 sweets. add 4,5, and 7 to get 16 then multiply it by 6 to get 96 sweets.

Suppose the line of best fit is being found for some points that have an r-value of 0.769. If the standard deviation of the x-co
jeyben [28]

r value i.e Correlation between x value and y value = 0.769

A_{x}=Standard deviation of the x-coordinate = 5.508

 A_{y}=Standard deviation of the y-coordinate = ?=k

Slope of line is given by formula

If slope of line is m, then

m = r\times \frac{ A_{x}}{A _{y}}

m= 0.769 \times \frac{k}{5.508}

Substitute the value of k, i.e Standard deviation of the y-coordinate and then you can get the slope of line to three decimal places.
