You get 40 by multiplying 20 by 2 so all you have to do is multiply 5 by 2 also and you get 10. So the answer is 10 pairs of cups.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<h2>x = 114</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2x – 1.8/5 = 4.2

0.2x - 1.8 = 4.2 (5)

x =<u> 21 + 1.8 </u>

0.2

x = 22.8 / 0.2

x = 114

dem82 [27]

Answer: 12 refills

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 8.95 + 1.50x

26.95= 8.95 + 1.50x

26.95 - 8.95 = 1.50x

18 = 1.50X

18 / 1.50 = x

X = 12

The scatter plot below shows the profit earned each month by a new company over the first year of operation.

raketka [301]

Explanation:

To determine the slope and y-intercept of the equation, let us plot the coordinates in the slope-intercept form.

Analyzing the graph, some of the points that are on the straight line is (1,0),(3,5), (9,20)

Let us consider the points (1,0),(3,5) to determine the slope.

$\begin{aligned}m &=\frac{5-0}{3-1} \\&=\frac{5}{2} \\&=2.5\end{aligned}$

Since, the profit is earned in thousands of dollars, m = 2.5 or m = 2500

Thus, slope = 2500

To determine the y- intercept, let us substitute any one of the coordinate from the graph.

Thus, let us substitute (1,0) in the equation $y=mx+b$ to determine the y-intercept.

$0=2500(1)+b\\$

Simplifying, we have,

$b=-2500$

Hence, the line of best fit equation is $y=2500x-2500$
