A state transportation worker records the number of miles traveled on a thruway and the corresponding tolls. The worker creates

a scatter plot of the data and determines that the line of best fit is T(m) = 0.04m + 1.26, where T is the amount of the toll, in dollars, and m is the number of miles traveled on the thruway.
Based on this linear model, how many miles can be traveled on the thruway for each additional $1 increase on the toll?

<span>Suppose the toll is $10. Then, .04m + 1.26 = 10. We can simplify that to .04m = 8.74 and again to m =218.5. Now, suppose the toll is $11. Then, .04m + 1.26 = 11. Going through the same steps as before we find that m = 243.5. So a $10 fair will allow a passenger to travel 218.5 miles while an $11 fare will allow 243.5 miles of travel. The difference between these two is 25 miles. Since the fares are $1 apart, that means each additional $1 increase results in 25 additional miles. More simply, 0.04m gives the slope of the line telling us how many miles are traveled per dollar of fare, which is to say 0.04. So we could divide 1 by .04 to get the same result.</span>

Answer:

The second option (see attached image)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for a box diagram that represents 9 units, and from those, clearly marked sections that contain 3/2 = 1.5 units.The idea is to count how many 1.5 units you have in 9 units.

The in the second diagram you see 9 boxes subdivided in half. Then outlined in red other smaller boxes of length 1.5 units. We can clearly see from the diagram that there are exactly 6 of these smaller 1.5 units red boxes to produce the total 9 unit object.

The oven tray is 600mm by 500mm. A cake tin is 25cm in diameter. How many cake tins can jenny fit on the oven tray at one time?
MAXImum [283]
We have to convert the measurements
the tray is 60 cm by 50 cm

if the cake tin is 25 cm in diameter, it will fit just 4 cakes because we have a length of 60 cm (will have 10 cm left over) and a width of 50 cm 
hope it helps
