Answer:
(1/2)x + $5 (Answer A)
Step-by-step explanation:
Two points on the line representing the cost are (8, $9) and (12, $11).
The change in x is 4 (minutes); this is the 'run.' The change in y is $2 (this is the 'rise'). Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = $2/(4 min), or 1/2 dollar per min.
Applying the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b, we get:
$9 = (1/2)(8) + b, and from this we see that b must be $5.
Then the correct equation is y = (1/2)x + $5.
2+2= 4 soooooo x=4 and yh hope that that helped
Answer:
The final mean is higher
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of all the scores = 
The mean of the scores with the 60 dropped = 
The final mean is higher
That will always happen when you drop the lowest score. I worked it out for you so that you would see that it happened in your case.
