Omar is on a diet to lose some weight. He is losing weight at a rate of 2 pounds per week. After 6 weeks, his weight is 204 poun
1 answer:
Our basis would be 204 pounds. His original weight, 6 week ago, must be
204 + 2(6) = 216 pounds
But, we have to find the number of weeks having known the present weight (204 pounds) and the target weight (189). The linear equation would be
189 = 204 - 2(number of weeks)
Number of weeks = (204-189)/2
Number of weeks = 7.5
The total number of weeks would then be 6 weeks + 7.5 weeks. It would take Omar 13 and a half weeks since he started his diet to reach his target weight.
204 + 2(6) = 216 pounds
But, we have to find the number of weeks having known the present weight (204 pounds) and the target weight (189). The linear equation would be
189 = 204 - 2(number of weeks)

B
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a trend line (attached).
Reading from the graph, the resting hear rate, in bpm, of a person who exercises an average of 8 hours a week is approximately 47.
The only scatter plot that suggests a linear relationship between x and y is graph B (see second attachment) as the trend line is a straight line.
