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>

The original area of a face would be a^2. Now that you added b to the edge, the new area of each face would be (a+b)^2. To find how much the are increased, subtract a^2 from (a+b)^2. (a+b)^2-(a^2)= a^2+2ab+b^2-(a^2)= 2ab+b^2= b(2a+b) So the answer is b(2a+b)

Hoochie [10]

Complete Question

Sophie pays m dollars to rent a car for the weekend. On the drive home, she buys $45 worth of gasoline. Her friend Melody pays for one-half the cost of the car rental only. Write an expression you could use to determine how much Sophie spent.

Answer:

1/2m + 45

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that:

On the drive home, she buys $45 worth of gasoline.

Her friend Melody pays for one-half the cost of the car rental only.

Sophie pays m dollars to rent a car for the weekend.

The amount sophie pays for car rental = m - 1/2m

= 1/2m

Therefore, the expression used to determine how much sophie spent is written as:

1/2 × $m + $45

1/2m + 45
