3 is the lesser and 4 is the higher, because taking away 1 from four is 25%.
No, it does not and it's not supposed to. A trend line is drawn to go through in the best way possible, to go through the "center" of the points as best as it can. It may hit some of the points, but not all of them. Generally, the idea is to try to get the trend line to have as many points "above" it as it does "below" it to say you've gone through them evenly.
If there are 40 children aged twelve and under and x of them are under three years old, 40 - x aged three twelve years old. From the 92 people that where taken by the company on whale watching trips, 52 are over twelve years old. The equation that best show the total cost, C is
(40 - x)(36) + (52)(48) = C
Rearranging the equation gives,
x = 40 - ((C - 2496)/ 36)
Answer:
20x + 17 = 77 --> Addition Property of Equality:
You are adding (Addition Property) 4x to both sides of the equal sign (Equality).
20x = 60 --> Subtraction Property of Equality:
You subtracted (Subtraction Property) 17 from both sides of the equal sign (Equality).
x = 3 --> Division Property of Equality:
You divided (Division Property) 20 from both sides of the equal sign (Equality) to completely isolate the variable x.

I also think the answer is D, who else agrees with me? Btw, thank you for posting this question. I enjoy answering fun things sometimes.
