88 tens = 880
20 tens = 200
880 - 200 = 680

The total number of items sold by each student who participated in a fund-raiser is shown in the stem and leaf plot.
Which statement is best supported by the data in the stem and leaf plot?
The number of students who sold between 10 and 20 items is greater than the number of students who sold more then 40 items.
The number of students who sold more than 30 items is greater than the number of students who sold fewer than 30 items.
The most common number of items sold is 30.
The most common number of items sold is 15.
4(x+2)+2=14
4x+8+2=14
4x+10=14
Subtract 10 from both sides
4x=4
Divide by 4 on both sides
x=1
To determine the answer it would be helpful if we write this equation into the slope intercept form which is expressed as:
y = mx+b
<span> y−2x=816
y = 2x + 816
4x=2y
y = 2x
We can see that the slope of the two equations are the same. Therefore, they are parallel which means they do not intersect. The correct answer is the third option, there is no solution.</span>
