THE GRAPH IS BELOW THANKS :) Anika is on the crew to set up rides for the state fair. The crew does most of the setup on the day

that the fair arrives at the fairground and then continues to work on finishing the setup for about a week to have the rides ready to go in time for the opening of the fair. The scatter plot shows Anika's setup time on different days and the linear model for the data.
(a) What is the equation of the line, written in slope-intercept form? Show how you determined the equation.
(b) Based on the linear model, predict how long Anika worked on the setup crew on the day the fair arrived at the fairgrounds, Day 0. Approximately how much did her setup time decrease per day?

Answer:

(a) We will form an equation of line from the points given (6,10) and (2,15)

Using:y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\cdot (x-x_1)

On substituting the values in the formula above we will get the required equation of line.

y-10=\frac{15-10}{2-6}\cdot (x-6)

\Rightarrow y-10=\frac{5}{-4}\cdot (x-6)

On simplification we will get:

y=\frac{1}{4}(-5x+70)

(b) We need to tell at day 0 put x=0 in above equation:

y=\frac{1}{4}(-5\cdot 0+70)

y=70

Anika worked for 70 hours on the set up crew on the day the fair arrived at the fairgrounds day 0.

Now, we need to tell decrease per day which is equal to the slope of line

To find the slope compare the equation with general equation which is y=mx+c where m is slope

Here, in y=\frac{1}{4}(-5x+70)

m=\frac{-5}{4}  which is the decrease per day.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

3/10 and 2/5 = 3/10 and 4/10

1/3 and 3/4 = 4/12 and 9/12

Step-by-step explanation:

For 3/10 and 2/5

* Find the lcm (least common multiple) of the denominators which are 10 and  

 5. The multiples of 10 are: 10, 20, 30 etc and the multiples of 5 are: 5, 10 15,

 etc. So, the lcm is 10. It is the smallest multiple that the denomitaotrs share.

* Next multiply the numerators (3 and 2) by whatever number you use to

  multiply the denominator by to get 10. For 3/10, the denominator stayed the

  same, so to get 10, you need to multiply 10 by 1. Do the same for the

  numerator. 3 x 1 = 3. So, the first factor pair is 3/10.

* The second factor pair is 2/5, so we are still using the lcm of 10. So, what

  do you need to multiply 5 by to get 10? The answer is 2. Now just multiply

  the numerator (2) by 2 and you get 4. The second factor pair is now 4/10.

Answer:

49.65-50.35

Step-by-step explanation:

0.7% of 50 is 0.35. We can find the range by first subtracting that from 50 which is 49.65, then adding it to get 50.35.

Kelsey bought a circular rug that is 10 feet in diameter. The rug has a blue border and a red circular center that is 8 feet in
Soloha48 [4]

the blue rug is 2 feet in diameter because you specifically said all together it was 10 and they say the red rug is 8 feet which means you have to do 10-8=2


Hope this helps!!! Can u rate me brainiest and thank me
