Answer:
B. y = -2/3x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula to find the slope when given two points on a line:
<u>y</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>y</u><u>1</u>
x2 - x1
Substitute the two given points (6, 8) (9, 6):
<u>6</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>8</u>
9 - 6
Slope = -2/3x
We found the slope! And the answer choices already gave us one y-intercept, which is 12. The last thing we do is we form an equation with the information we solved and that was given to us.
y = slope (x) + y-intercept
y = -2/3x + 12
The answer choice that matches this equation is B.
In conclusion, the equation that best estimates the line of best fit shown above is answer choice B.
<span>0.4 is 10 times as much as ? for answering this, we put x an unknown number such that 0.4 is 10 times as much as x, so it does mean 0.4 =10x, so for finding the value of x, we divids 0.4 by 10, x= 0.4/10=0.04. the answer is 0.4 is 10 times as much as 0.04Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!</span>
Can you help me with my posted questions
the function is increasing from x = 0 to x = 1
when x = 0, y = 2
when x = 1, y = 8
this shows an increase of +6, so we know this statement is true
we can see the rest are false simply because they state a decrease when there is an increase. this question is only confusing because we ask you about the increase and decrease in the function, when really its the same thing as asking about an increase or decrease in the y variable.
in other words, all youre looking for is the variation of the value of the y variable that is attached to the specific x variables.
hope this helps!!
