Answer:
(a)23 (b)90 (c)3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the line of best fit for this situation is given as
where x=average temperature in degrees
y=average number of hot dogs she sold,
(a) The expected number of hot dogs sold when the temperature is 50° would be___hot dogs.
When x=50°
When the temperature is 50°, the expected number of hot dogs sold would be 23.
(b)If the vendor sold 35 hot dogs, the temperature is expected to be ___degrees.
If y=35
Multiply both sides by 10/3
If the vendor sold 35 hot dogs, the temperature is expected to be 90 degrees.
(c) Based on the line of best fit, for every 10-degree increase in temperature, she should sell 3 more hot dogs.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that, a mouse covered a distance of 3/24 miles over a distance of 3 hours. Each hour, the mouse traveled the same distance. Distance traveled in 1 hour can be calculated by dividing 3/24 miles by 3. So,
Matt calculations shows that the distance is 3/8 hours. While dividing 3/24 by 3, he doesn't take reciprocal of 3 as a result he get 9 on numerator and 24 on denominator. Simplified fraction of 9/24 is 3/8. But the correct answer should be 1/24 hours.
