<h2><u>Information</u></h2>

Tim had $187 dollars to spend.

Tim buys 9 books.

Tim has $18 dollars left after buying 9 books.


<h2><u>Steps</u></h2>

First, subtract the total amount of dollars Tim has to spend with his remaining balance after purchasing the books to find the total amount of cash spent on books.

$187 (total spending) - $18 (remaining balance) = $169 (spent on books)


Then, divide the amount of cash spent on books with the amount of books bought.

$169 (spent on books) ÷ 9 (books) = $18.77 (cost per book)

Quick note: You don't round up since this is dealing with cash. You can only round down, but leave to 2 decimal places (to the hundredths place) for a precise amount.


<h2><u>Conclusion</u></h2>

Tim spent $18.77 on each book.

Each book costed about $18.77

To do this problem do this:

9b = 187 - 18

This is because since you have 18 dollars left over subtract it from the total amount of money you had before.

9b = 169

Divide:

b = $18.77

To check you work multiply in 18.77, 9 times and add 18 dollars to it:

18.77(9) = 169

169 + 18 = 187

Let fat be the explanatory variable and calories be the response variable; which scenario best describes ŷ = 121 + 1.42x?
emmasim [6.3K]

Using <u>linear function concepts</u>, it is found that the correct option is:

The amount of calories in a cheeseburger increases by 1.42 for every one gram of fat. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 121 if there are zero grams of fat.

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which represents by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem:

  • The explanatory variable fat is the input.
  • The response variable calories is the output.

The equation is:

y = 121 + 1.42x

  • The slope is of 1.42, which means that the amount of calories increases by 1.42 when the amount of fat increases by 1 gram.
  • The y-intercept is of 121, which means that if there are 0 grams of fat, there will be 121 calories.

Thus, the correct option is:

The amount of calories in a cheeseburger increases by 1.42 for every one gram of fat. The calorie amount estimated by this model is 121 if there are zero grams of fat.
