The way to solve it is to put the 154 on top of 35 and multiply it to get the answer, 154 times 35 = 5390
x ≤ 6
which is A
or if not then it's B for
x ≥ 6
We are given the table that projects the distance of the car per hour. x is associated to time while y is associated to distance. The equation of the line after plotting in MS Excel is y = 900 - 50x. Hence the y-intercept is equal to 900 while the slope is equal to -50. The domain of the function that is x is all positive numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define
</u>
y = home runs
x = hits
[Best Line of Fit] y = 0.15x - 1.5
<em>We can use this to predict the average of the scatter plot.
</em>
home runs = y = 35
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em><u> hits</u>
-
Substitute [BLF]: 35 = 0.15x - 1.5
- Add 1.5 on both sides: 36.5 = 0.15x
- Divide 0.15 on both sides: 243.333 = x
- Rewrite: x = 243.333
Remember that this is a <em>prediction</em>. According to the best line of fit, we would need approximately ~243 to get 35 home runs.
The bottom line in the red triangle is 3 units long.
The top line of the blue triangle is 6 units long.
Divide the larger by the smaller to get the scale factor: 6 / 3 =2
The scale factor is 2
