A data set consists of the following data points:

1 answer:

8 0

Since the slope of the line is already given, by plotting the three points and drawing a best fit line using the given slope and extending the line to hit the x-axis, the y-intercept can be determined. Line-fitting tools can also be used; common scientific calculators have that feature.
So, the answer is D. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 chips in total.

P(red) = 8/20 = 2/5

P(not green) = 16/20 = 4/5

P(yellow or green) = 9/20

Would really appreciate if u could help me with all letters but even a few are great! Thanks (the graph is hard to explain so i

Part A

The equation is b = 36*a or simply b = 36a

We take the size of the farm 'a' and multiply it by 36 to get the number of bushels of corn 'b'.

-----------------------------------

Part B

The 36 means there are 36 times more bushels of corn compared to the size of the farm in acres

For example, if the size is 2 acres then
b = 36*a
b = 36*2
b = 72
yielding 72 bushels of corn

-----------------------------------

Part C

Along the first row you should have: 25 and 30 in the missing blanks (over 900 and 1080 respectively)

You find this by dividing the value of b over 36
eg: b/36 = 900/36 = 25

-------

Then along the bottom row you should have the following for the blanks: 0, 360, 1800

These values are found by multiplying the 'a' value by 36
eg: if a = 10 then b = 36*a = 36*10 = 360

-----------------------------------

Part D

Plot any two points you want from the table back in part C
So plot say (0,0) and (10,360). Then draw a straight line through those two points.

-----------------------------------

Part E

The point (30,1080) means a = 30 and b = 1080
So if the farm is 30 acres, then it can produce 1080 bushels of corn

Notice how
b = 36*a
b = 36*30 <<-- replace 'a' with 30
b = 180
And how this matches up with the fourth column of the table in part C. So you can use this part to get a hint of how to fill out the table (or at least know what one column looks like)

Pira drives 825 miles to California. The trip takes him 17 hours. He uses 38 gallons of gas on the trip, which costs him $125. F

Lunna [17]

Speed = Distance / time:

Speed = 825 miles / 17 hours

Speed = 48.529 miles per hour. (Round the answer as needed).

Gas mileage = miles traveled / gallons used

Gas mileage = 825 miles / 38 gallons = 21.71 miles per gallon (Round answer as needed).

Unit rate of gas = Total money spend / gallons bought:

Unit rate of gas = $125 / 38 gallons = $3.289 per gallon.
