Answer:

y= 1/2x + 17/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find your slope using y-y1/x-x1. This is your expression: 10-6/3--5. 10-6 equals 4, and 3--5 equals 8. Your slope is 4/8, but it can be simplified to 1/2. This should be your current equation: y=1/2x+b. Plug in one of your ordered pairs to the equation, it doesn't matter which pair you want to use. I'm using the second ordered pair, so this is what you would have: 10=1/2(3)+b. Multiply 1/2 by 3 to get 3/2. This is what it should look like: 10=3/2+b. Subtract 3/2 from both sides to get your y-intercept of 17/2. Go back to your original equation and plug in your y-intercept. This is your final answer: y= 1/2x + 17/2. Hope this helped!

A best fit regression line is the line that most closely approximates the data.  This means that the line must be near most of, if not all, of the points of the data set.  

If this truly is the line of best fit, the points of the data will be near the line.</span>

The correct question is
<span>A​ country's people consume 6.3 billion pounds of candy​ (excluding chewing​ gum) per year. Express this quantity in terms of pounds per person per month. Note that the population of the country is 301 million.

we know that
1 billion------------------> 1000000000 </span><span>(Thousand </span>Million)=1 x 10<span>^9
</span><span>then
</span>6.3 billion pounds--------------> 6.3 x 10^9 pounds
[pounds of candy per person per year]=[6.3 x 10^9 pounds]/[301 x 10^6]

[pounds of candy per person per year]=20.93 pounds per person per year

[pounds of candy per person per month]=20.93/12=1.74 pounds per person per month

the answer is 1.74 pounds per person per month

Ber [7]
A costumer bought some potting soil for $12.50 and 6 shrubs. 
If the total bill was $71.00, you can calculate how much did each shrub cost if they all cost the same:

$71.00 - $12.50 = $58.5

$58.5 / 6 shrubs = $9.75

Result: Each shrub cost $9.75.
