Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Scatter plot

x---square feet

y---rent

SolutionA:

Kindly check the attached image below:

THERE EXISTS A WEAK POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SQUARE FEET AND RENT .

AS SQUARE FEET INCREASES RENT INCREASES

SolutionB:

Rent=0.4932(squarefeet)+992.99

slope=m=0.4932

Y intercept=992.99

SolutionC:

Interpretation of slope:

slope =m=change in rent/change in square foot

For a unit increase in square feet rent increases by 0.4932

Interpretation of y intercept:

when square feet=0 rent is 992.99

Solutiond:

when squarefeet=800

Rent=0.4932(squarefeet)+992.99

=Rent=0.4932(800)+992.99

=1387.55

Mr. Simpson is buying jerseys for his High School football team. Thejerseys cost $0 each and there is a processing fee of $65 to
Rina8888 [55]

ANSWER

The linear equation is: y = 80x + 65

Te cost for 40 football jerseys: $3265

EXPLANATION

Let 'x' be the number of jerseys and 'y' the cost of x jerseys.

Each jersey costs $80, so the cost of x jerseys is 80x. There's also an extra fee for procesing of $65, which is the same no matter how many jerseys they buy.

Therefore, the cost 'y' of x jerseys is:

y=80x+65

Now we want to know the cost of 40 football jerseys, so we just have to replace x by 40 and solve:

\begin{gathered} y=80\cdot40+65 \\ y=3200+65 \\ y=3265 \end{gathered}
