The answer would be 747.50! Because if you were wanting to decrease the price then you would multiply $299 by 40% So since you are wanting to add to the price then you would divide...Hope that makes since :)

Answer: The most he could pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed is $213.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, if Jay King wants a 40% markup on selling price, we can state that “x” is 140% of $299.

Mathematically speaking:

1.4 x = $299

Where:

1.4 = decimal form of the percentage (140/100 =1.4)

x = manufacturer's blow up bed maximum price

Solving for x:

x = 299/1.4 = 213.57

So, the most he could pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed is $213.57

Which of the following equations best represents the regression line for the data given in the
True [87]

The regression equation for the data given is y= -8.57 -2.31x

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to form a table as shown below;

x           y          xy         x²         y²

1            4           4          1          16

2            1            2          4         1

3            5          15         9         25

4             10         40        16       100

5             16         80        25      256

6              19        114       36        361

7               15       105       49       225

28             60       360      140     984  ------sum

A linear regression equation is in the form of y=A+Bx

where ;

x=independent variable

y=dependent variable

n=sample size/number of data points

A and B are constants that describe the y-intercept and the slope of the line

Calculating the constants;

A=(∑y)(∑x²) - (∑x)(∑xy) / n(∑x²) - (∑x)²

A=(60)(140) - (28)(360)  / 7(140)-(28)²

A=8400 - 10080 /980-784

A= -1680/196

A= - 8.57

B= n(∑xy) - (∑x) (∑y) / n(∑x²) - (∑x)²

B= 7(360)-(28)(60) / 7(60) - (28)²

B=2520 - 1680 /420-784

B=840/-364

B= -2.31

y=A+Bx

y= -8.57 -2.31x

Solve for Angles X&Y.

Y=102 X=78
There is 900 degrees in a hexagon so you have to add up all the sides you already know and subtract 900 minus all the degrees you added then when you get your answer you can see that there is a supplementary line connecting to the hexagon and we know that a line is 180 degrees so you then subtract 180 with the degree you just found:)
