48.75 / 750 = 0.065
0.065 * 100% = 6.5%

Check:
750 * 6.5% = 750 * 6.5/100 = 750 * 65/1000 = 48750/1000 = 48.75

I don't know what the "lowest y-intercept means" so if you can reiterate and clarify I'd appreciate it, but if you understand what you're looking for then I assume that a graph would be helpful. An online useful graphing site I like is desmos. Hope I helped.

WHAT IS THE ANSWER FOR 12 1/3 + 8 3/4 +17 2/8 +23 2/3=

gulaghasi [49]

$12 \dfrac{1}{3} + 8 \dfrac{3}{4} +17 \dfrac{2}{8} +23 \dfrac{2}{3}$

Simplify
$= 12 \dfrac{1}{3} + 8 \dfrac{3}{4} +17 \dfrac{1}{4} +23 \dfrac{2}{3}$

Change the denominators to be the same
$= 12 \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} + 8 \dfrac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3} +17 \dfrac{1 \times 3 }{4 \times 3} +23 \dfrac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4}$

$= 12 \dfrac{4}{12} + 8 \dfrac{9}{12} +17 \dfrac{3 }{12} +23 \dfrac{8}{12}$

Combine into single fraction
$= 60 \dfrac{24}{12}$

$= 62$

A histogram would best represent the data.
Dot plot is a good way to show a certain trend. However, when it comes to the number of a item, in this case the number of students in a certain score range, a histogram will be the most intuitive and concise. Thus, a histogram best represent the data presented here.
