Answer:
x=2
y=4
3 times 4 equals 12 and 2 plus 4 would equal six
1. Eyeballing the data, the best fit will be pretty close to a line between the leftmost point and the rightmost point.
We estimate those points as (4,220) and (28,470)
The point point form for a line joining (a,b) and (c,d) is
(c-a)(y-b) = (d-b)(x-a)
(28 - 4)(y - 220) = (470 - 220)(x - 4)
24(y - 220) = 250(x-4)
24y - 5280 = 250x - 1000
24y = 250 x + 4280
y = (250/24) x+ (4280/24)
Approximately that's,
y = 10.4 x + 178
Answer: 4th choice, 10.4x + 180
2. For 48 wheelbarrows,
y = 10.4(48)+180 = 679.2
Answer: 679.2 liters of sand
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 3*0^2+2(0-5)>8
-10>8 -> not true
B) 3*(-1)^2+2(-1-5)>8
3*1+2*(-6)>8
3- 12>8
-9> 8 -> not true
C) 3*(-2)^2+2(-2-5)>8
3*4+2*(-7)>8
12-14>8
-2> 8 -> not true
D) ) 3*(-3)^2+2(-3-5)>8
3*9+2*(-8)>8
27-16>8
11> 8 -> true
