Answer: Hello mate!
if x is the amount of hours worked, 45 is the slope and the y intercept is 35.
A linear equation has the form of y = ax + b, where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept, then the equation that we have is:
y = 45*x + 35
this means that she wins $45 per hour, and has a plane amount of $35, indiferent of the amount of hours worked.
Then the correct answer is
C) Grace's wage is $45 an hour, and it appears that she received a signing bonus of $35.
You multiply or divide integers just as you do whole numbers, except you must keep track of the signs. To multiply or divide signed integers, always multiply or divide the absolute values and use these rules to determine the sign of the answer.

When you multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer positive.</span>
<span>Positive x positive = positive
Negative x negative = positive</span>
<span>When you multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer negative.</span>
<span>Positive x negative = negative
Negative x positive = negative</span>
<span>When you divide two integers with the same sign, the result is always positive. Just divide the absolute values and make the answer positive.</span>
<span>Positive ÷ positive = positive
Negative ÷ negative = positive</span>
<span>When you divide two integers with different signs, the result is always negative. Just divide the absolute values and make the answer negative.</span>
<span>Positive ÷ negative = negative
Negative ÷ positive = negative</span>
Is there a picture of the data set? I cannot give you an exact answer without the actual data values, but I can explain how to solve it.
The mean absolute deviation basically tells the average of how much each data value deviates from the mean of the entire data set. Therefore you just find the difference between each value in the data set and 57. Then you take all the differences and find the average by adding them all up and dividing by the number of values.
