The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope.
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4
B. y = 4x + 9
C. y = x + 18
D. y = 3x + 22
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept?
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10.
That leaves us with A and B.
Which has the closest approximation of the slope?
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15.
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.
Therefore, the answer is
B) y= 4x + 9

Given: 48 students took the exam.
A total of 18 + 10 = 28 students scored 80% or above.
To find the percentage, take the part (28 students) divided by the whole (48 students) then multiply the quotient by 100.
(28 students / 48 students) x 100 = 58.33%
58.33% of the students who took the exam scored an 80% or higher
Answer:
Solve for
