You do add the two negatives and get a negative answer but -3 + -5 = -8
Answer:
it is c
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>15 - 13(2x + 6) < 15 - 3(6x - 7)
15 - 26x - 78 < 15 - 18x + 21
-26x -63 < -18x + 36
-8x < 99
x > -99/8
or
x > - 12.375

The residual is the difference between the plotted point and the line of best fit.
We first need to know the point at x=5 for the line of best fit.
y1 = -(5) - 3 = -8
Now we need to find the difference between the line of best fit and the plotted point.
residual = 9 -(-8) = 9 + 8 = 17 or C
