<u>Find fraction of snappers and catfish:</u>

1/3 + 2/9 = 3/9 + 2/9 = 5/9


<u>Find fraction of goldfish:</u>

1 - 5/9 = 4/9


4/9 = 40 goldfish

1/9 = 40 ÷ 4 = 10

9/9 = 10 x 9 = 90


Answer: 90 fish in the tank

Find the equation for the trend line through the points (0, 11) and (100, 33). Then use it to predict the number of baskets Romy
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

28 baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a linear trend line is given by:

y = mx + b, where y and x are variables, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept (that is value of y when x is zero).

The equation of a line passing through two points (x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2) is:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

y represent the number of baskets made and x represents the time take. Given that the line passes through the points  (0, 11) and (100, 33), hence:

y-11=\frac{33-11}{100-0}(x-0)\\\\y-11=\frac{11}{50}x\\\\y=  \frac{11}{50}x+11

The number of baskets Romy would make after practicing for 80 minutes (x = 80) is:

y=\frac{11}{50}x+11\\\\y=\frac{11}{50}(80)+11  \\\\y=17.6+11\\\\y=28.6\\\\Therefore\ y\ =\ 28\ baskets
