Just comparing your (x, y) points to the values on the table, it looks like b) would be the quick answer. Since it states under the table to use average values within each range.
So for x=62 (the weight), we have y=122 (the iron count) which would be the average of the range between 115 and 129.
Similiarly, x=70 corresponds to y=146, which is the average of 139 and 153.
You could take the average values of your highest and lowest iron count ranges compare them to the max-min weight to get your slope. Looks like it would be (155-112)/(73-58)= 43/15= 2.8666 repeating. That would make sense with the slope in the equation listed in b) as well.

<span>y - 2418.6 = 5.9(x - 54)
y - 2418.6 = 5.9x - 318.6
y = 5.9x + 2100
f(x) = 5.9x + 2100 (this is our function)
.
Now we can answer:
What is the weight of the plane with 26 gallons of fuel in its tank?
f(26) = 5.9(26) + 2100 = 2253.4 pounds

Answer:
x= 8 y= 1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you identify your variables:
x= larger number
y= smaller number
Second, you find your equations:
x - y = 7
2x + 3y = 19
Third, (I used the substitution method) you make "y" by itself for the 1st equation.
y = x - 7
2x + 3y = 19
Then, you plug in the 1st equation for "y" in the 2nd equation
2x + 3(x - 7) = 19
Then, you distribute and simplify.
2x + 3x - 21 = 19
5x - 21 = 19
5x = 40
x = 8
Finally, you plug in the variable you found ( x ) into one of the equations and solve,
8 - y = 7
- y = -1
y = 1
Say x is the number
7x +3 = 39 -2x
Add 2x to each side
9x +3 =39
Subtract 3 from each side
9x =36
Divide by 9 on each side
x=4
