Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3><h3>y = (-2/3)x + 12</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
We will only focus on the two points that are on the regression line.
Those two points are (3,10) and (12,4)
Let (x1,y1) = (3,10) and (x2,y2) = (12,4)
Find the slope of the line through (x1,y1) = (3,10) and (x2,y2) = (12,4)
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (4 - 10)/(12 - 3)
m = -6/9
m = -2/3
Plug m = -2/3 and (x1,y1) = (3,10) into the point slope formula
Solve for y.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 10 = (-2/3)(x - 3)
y - 10 = (-2/3)x + (-2/3)(-3) ... distribute
y - 10 = (-2/3)x + 2
y - 10 + 10 = (-2/3)x + 2 + 10 .... add 10 to both sides
y = (-2/3)x + 12
This matches up with what the graph shows because the regression line intersects 12 on the y axis, so the y intercept is 12.
y = (-2/3)x + 12 is in the form y = mx+b with m = -2/3 as the slope and b = 12 as the y intercept.
The two numbers are <u>19 and 52.</u>
<h3>
EXPLANATION</h3>
19 x 3 = 57, 57 - 5 = 52, 52 - 19 = 33.
Hope this helps!
19 3.4=12.2=24-5=19 so the answer is 19
