which of the following equations is the equation of a suitable line of best fit for the data given below {(45,18), (62,13), (72,

11), (55,15), (38,21), (26,31), (92,9), (64,13), (29,28), (33,25), (49,17)} a. y=3x+35 b. y=-10x+35 c. y=-3/10x-35 d. y=-3/10x+35

Sort the data by x:

(26,31),(29,28), (33,25), (38,21),(45,18),(49,17),(55,15), (62,13),(64,13), (72,11), (92,9)}

That look like an obvious decreasing trend. From the first and last point we get a slope of (9-31)/(92-26) = -1/3 and a y intercept of 31 - (-1/3)26 = 39.67.

That's pretty close to Choice d y=-3/10x+35

Answer: d

Martin burns 360 calories running for 30 minutes. Paul burns 165 calories for every 15 minute he runs. If Kara runs for 20 minut
Yanka [14]

Answer:  She would have to burn between 220 and 240 calories per minute to have a calorie burn rate between those of Martin and Paul.

Step-by-step explanation:

Martin:

360 calories / 30 min = 12 calories/min

Paul:

165 calories / 15 min = 11 calories/min

Kara:

Needs to burn between 11 and 12 calories/min, so we'll calculate the range:

11 calories/min x 20 min = 220 calories (minimum # calories she can burn)

12 calories/min x 20 min = 240 calories (maximum # calories she can burn)

Use the distributive property to find an expression that is equivalent to <br> 2x(x + 7)-(3x +1)
zaharov [31]

Given expression:

     2x(x + 7)-(3x +1);

To distribute implies to spread a process equally in an expression. Often times, the distributive property is used for expressions inside parentheses;

  2x(x + 7)-(3x +1)  

  Distribute 2x over the first parentheses;

   the negative sign distributes over the second part

    = (2x² + 14x)  - 3x -1

    = 2x² + 14x -3x -1

    Add like terms;

    = 2x² + 11x -1

This expression  2x² + 11x -1 is equal to the given one

Renata wins a $20 gift card to an online music site. After Renata purchases 16 songs, the gift card has a remaining
amm1812

Answer: y=20-1.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

You need to analize the information given in the exercise.

You know that gift card had a total of $20. Then, since she started to buy the songs with $20, you can identify that:

b=20

Since Renata purchased 16 songs and the gift card had a remaining  balance of $0 after this, you can find the cost of each song. This is:

\frac{20}{16}=\$1.25

Therefore, she spent $1.25 per song. This means that the slope is:

m=-1.25

Then, you get that the equation that represents the relationship between "y" (the remaining balance on Renata's gift card) and "x" (the number of songs purchased) is:

y=20-1.25x
