Answer:

75 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 180 by 12 to see how much a single jar weighs

180/12 = 15

Multiply the weight of one jar by how many jars you need

15x5 = 75

Answer: 75 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The 12 jars combined weigh 180 ounces in total. We find the weight per jar by dividing 180 ounces by 12 which gives is 15 ounces per jar. We find the weight of 5 jars by multiplying 5 jars by 15 ounces. Here are the calculations as follows.

180÷12=15
15x5=75

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to set up a system of equations, then solve for the number of board markers.

Let r represent red pens, let b represent board markers.

She has 41 items, so our first equation is r+b=41.

The total cost is $46.30, so our second equation is .55r+1.5b=46.3.

r+b=41

.55r+1.5b=46.3

Let's use substitution.

r+b=41

r=41-b

.55r+1.5b=46.3

.55(41-b)+1.5b=46.3

22.55-.55b+1.5b=46.3

22.55+.95b=46.3

.95b=23.75

b=25

He bought 25 board markers.

Answer:

$y=-11x+261$

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can observe in the image attached, the line that best fits passes through point B and C. That means we can use those point to find the slope of such line.

$m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Where $B(11,137)$ and $C(12,126)$

$m=\frac{126-137}{12-11}=-11$

So, the slope of the line that best fits is -11, approximately.

Now, we use the point-slope formula to find the equation.

$y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )\\y-137=-11(x-11)\\y=-11x+124+137\\y=-11x +261$

Therefore, the line that best fits is $y=-11x+261$ approximately.

Remember, when we estimate a line for some data on a scatterplot, we are calculating an approximation, that's why we also said "approximately", because the line is an approximation where the majority of point meet.
