The interpretation of y = 9.5x is that: (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles.
<h3>How to interpret the equation?</h3>
The equation of the line of best fit is given as:
y = 9.5x
Divide both sides by x
9.5 = y/x
From the question, we have:
- x ⇒ number of miles run
- y ⇒ time
This means that:
9.5 = number of miles run/time
Hence, the interpretation of y = 9.5x is that: (a) For each 1 minute, the runner ran 9.5 miles.

Ok so the wording is confusing
is it
A. 3 friends took 1 slice each (total is 3 slice) or
B. 3 friends took 1 slice total
if A, go to AAAAAA
if B. to to BBBBB
AAAAAAAAAA
3 slices taken
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=3
original=8
8-3=5
5=left
fraction is 5/total=5/8
BBBBBB
taken=1
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=1
original=8
8-1=7
7=left
fraction is 7/total=7/8
if 3 slices taken total then 5/8 left
if 1 slice taken totl then 7/8 left
Notice how on both sides of the equation there is one coefficient (number being multiplied by x) and a constant (just a plain number). You want all constants to be on one side and all coefficients on the other. He’s how do to that:
2x+14=-21-5
I am choosing that all constants will be on the right side, so I will do the inverse operation of any constant on the left side to remove it. Here, a constant on the left side is 14. I will subtract 14 from both sides of the equation. Positive 14 minus 14 is zero, so it cancels out and removes it.
2x+14-14 = -21-5x
2x = -35-5x
See how the 14 is now gone? The equation looks much simpler now. Okay next, you can see that there is a coefficient on the “constant side” that I’ve chosen, so I am going to remove that. Negative 5 plus positive 5 equals zero. Do this on both sides of the equation.
2x+5x = -35-5x+5x
7x = -35
Now the equation is just two numbers. All that is left to do is divide by the last coefficient, 7, in this case.
7x/7 = -35/7
x = -5
