is there a value to y? if not, this is what I got:
Y^2 + 2y + 3
I find it easier if you draw out people(not perfectly just make a circle or something) and then circle every 2 people to count for the men. There are 16 men in the gym.
Answer:
the possible line of best fit equation is;
y = 10x + 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to get the approximate line of best fit
Mathematically, we have the general line of best fit as
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
By joining the given lines, we can see that the y-intercept values fall a little below 30
This means that the possible y-intercept value is 24
Now, to get the slope value, we select any two points and use the slope equation
We can have (3,50) and (6,80)
Using the slope equation;
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (80-50)/(6-3) = 30/3 = 10
The equation is thus;
y = 10x + 24
The first step we want to take here is to subtract 6 cups of sugar since we'll need it for something else, leaving us with 10 cups of sugar. It takes 2 cups of sugar for every batch of cookies, so you're going to divide 10 by 2. Luckily, 2 is a multiple of 10 so it's a whole number. By dividing, we get 5. So, we can make 5 batches of cookies while still saving 6 cups of sugar for something else.
