Answer:

Option C) y = 0.8x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The graph below shows the line of best fit for data collected on the number of cell phones and cell phone cases sold at a local electronics store on twelve different days.

We have to find the equation of line of best fit.

The equation can be calculated with the help of two-point form of equation of straight line.

The equation of line is given by:

(y-y_1) = \displaystyle\frac{y_2-y_2}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

where, (x_1,y_1), (x_2.y_2) is the point through which the line passes.

Taking any two points from the graph, (0,0) and (25,20), we have:

The equation of line is:

(y-0) = \displaystyle\frac{0-20}{0-25}(x-0)\\\\y = 2x\\y = \frac{-20}{-25}x\\\\y = 0.8x

The above equation is the required equation of line of best fit.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is given by y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

and

slope (m) is given by:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Where (x_1,y_1) are the first set of point in the line and (x_2,y_2) is the second set of point

<em>Let's take 2 points arbitrarily. (0,0) & (25,20)</em>

<em />

<em>Let's plug it and find the equation:</em>

<em>m=\frac{20-0}{25-0}=0.8</em>

<em>Now</em>

<em>y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-0=0.8(x-0)\\y=0.8x</em>

<em />

<em>C is the correct answer.</em>

Among 21- to 25-year-olds, 29% say they have driven while under the influence of alcohol. Suppose that three 21- to 25-year-olds
Sophie [7]

Answer:

P(3) = 0.0244

P(3) = 2.44%

the probability that all three selected have driven while under the influence of alcohol is 2.44% or 0.0244

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The probability that they have driven while under the influence of alcohol is;

P = 29% = 0.29

the probability that all three selected have driven while under the influence of alcohol is;

P(3) = P × P × P

P(3) = 0.29 × 0.29 × 0.29

P(3) = 0.024389

P(3) = 0.0244

P(3) = 2.44%

the probability that all three selected have driven while under the influence of alcohol is 2.44% or 0.0244

The sum of three different numbers is 18. If every number is a prime number, what are the three numbers?
alexdok [17]
The sum of three primes is 18 so they must all be smaller than 18 as well.

Primes less than 18=2,3,5,7,11,13,17

2,3, and 13

2,5, and 11

There are two solutions...
