Answer:

1. \frac{24-79}{12-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph of a scatter-plot and we are asked to find the correct expression than can be solved to find the slope of the trend line in the scatter-plot.

Since we know that slope of a line can be found by dividing the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by difference of the x-coordinates of these same points.  

\text{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}  

We can see that (2,79) and (12,24) are two given points of our trend line. So let us substitute x and y-coordinates of our given points in slope formula to find the our desired expression.    

x_1=2

x_2=12

y_1=79

y_2=24

\text{Slope}=\frac{24-79}{12-2}

Therefore, the expression \text{Slope}=\frac{24-79}{12-2} can be solved to find the slope of the trend line in the scatter-plot and 1st option is the correct choice.

You use the slope formula to do


(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)


In the options you have, y1 is equal to 24 and y2 is equal to 79 so x1 has to be 12 and x2 has to be 2


So we have the answer being


(24-79)/(12-2).


The first option

kell works at an after-school program at an elementray school. on monday he work for 1.5 hours and recived 12.6 dollars, on tues
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Kell would make more money working 10 hours than Markio.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much Kell makes per hour, you have to divide how much he worked by how much he earned. So on Monday, Kell worked 1.5 hours and received 12.6 dollars. Divide 12.6/1.5 and you'll find you're answer.

Monday:   12.6/1.5=<u>8.4</u>

On Tuesday, the problem states that he worked 2.5 hours and received 21 dollars. Divide 21/2.5 and you'll find the answer.

Tuesday:     21/2.5= <u>8.4</u>

On Wednesday, the problem states that he worked 4 hours and received 33.60. Divide 33.60/4 and you'll get you're answer.

Wednesday:    33.60/4= <u>8.4</u>

So we can conclude that Kell makes $8.40 per hour.

Now the problem states, Markio gets paid 7 dollars per hour. To find the answer to the question, you have to multiply how much they make per hour times 10 hours.

Markio:  7x10=70

Kell:  8.4x10=84

So to answer the question, Kell would make more money working 10 hours.


Hope it helps!

There are 65 children in the sixth grade. The ratio of boys to girls 3 to 2. A) how many girls are in the grade?
Akimi4 [234]

Given that,

Total number of children = 65

The ratio of boys to girls is 3 :2.

To find,

The number of girls in the grade.

Solution,

Let there are 3x girls and 2x boys.

ATQ,

3x + 2x = 65

5x = 65

x = 13

So, no of girls = 3x

= 3(13)

= 39

Hence, there are 39 girls in the grade.
