The interpretation of y = 9.5x is that: (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles.

<h3>How to interpret the equation?</h3>

The equation of the line of best fit is given as:

y = 9.5x

Divide both sides by x

9.5 = y/x

From the question, we have:

  • x ⇒ number of miles run
  • y ⇒ time

This means that:

9.5 = number of miles run/time

Hence, the interpretation of y = 9.5x is that: (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles.

Nancy has a 3.5-pound bag of birdseed. She uses 3/4 of the bag to fill a bird feeder in her garden. Then, she puts 0.25 pounds i
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

0.625lb bag of bird seeds

Step-by-step explanation:

She starts with a 3.5 lb bag,

Then she uses 3/4 of the bag, so find the remaining amount in the bag, which would be 1/4 of the original weight;

1/4 * 3.5

= 1/4 * 7/2

= 7/8

Then she removes 0.25 lbs of weight, hence take away 0.25 (the amount removed) from 7/8 (the current weight of the bag).

7/8 - 0.25

= 7/8 - 1/4

= 7/8 - 2/8

= 5/8

So she has a 5/8lb bag of bird seeds or a 0.625lb bag.
