Answer,

(26/2) * 3

= 39

Explanation,

26 cookies is only 2/3 of 3/3. So, we divide 26 by 2 to see how many cookies are in 1/3. We then can find out that when you make 1/3 of the cookies there are 13. Since that is only 1/3 and we want to find out 3/3. We multiply 13 by 3 and get 39 which is all the cookies she planned to make.

Hope this helps :-)

Answer:

$y=-11x+261$

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can observe in the image attached, the line that best fits passes through point B and C. That means we can use those point to find the slope of such line.

$m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Where $B(11,137)$ and $C(12,126)$

$m=\frac{126-137}{12-11}=-11$

So, the slope of the line that best fits is -11, approximately.

Now, we use the point-slope formula to find the equation.

$y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )\\y-137=-11(x-11)\\y=-11x+124+137\\y=-11x +261$

Therefore, the line that best fits is $y=-11x+261$ approximately.

Remember, when we estimate a line for some data on a scatterplot, we are calculating an approximation, that's why we also said "approximately", because the line is an approximation where the majority of point meet.

66x + 8= 20x -15 Solve

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

66x + 8 = 20x - 15

66x - 20x = -15 - 8

46x = -23

x = -23/46

x = -1/2
