Because if you know where the line crosses the y axis (the y intercept) you can plot a point there. Then with slope you can count to your next plotted point. With the 2 points you can now draw your line.
Answer:
$150012.84 or $150013 rounded
The growth factor is 1.07
Step-by-step explanation:
First create the equation:
y=1.07x+150,000
Then substitute:
y=1.07(12)+150,000
Calculate:
y=150012.84
Y=kx+b
2k+b=-1
6k+b=1
6k+b-2k-b=2
4k=2
k=1/2
b=-2
y=1/2x-2
So your answer is option A
To calculate the mean weights of the potatoes, the weights are all added and divided by the number of potatoes.
The sum of all the potatoes - <span>5 + 8 + 9 + 11 + 7 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 12 + 7 = 83
the number of potatoes - 10
we have to divide the sum of weights by 10
Mean weight = 83/10 = 8.3
Rounded off to the nearest ounce - 8 </span>ounces
