Answer:
Part 1: 30.35 runners
Part 2: 2024
Step-by-step explanation:
We will need to find an equation that best fits this data
- The equation of best fit for this data is y = 2.16x - 4291.81
Now in order to figure our part 1, we will need to plug in 2001 for our x value to solve for y and we get:
- y = 2.16(2001) - 4291.81 which then simplifies to y = 30.35
Then to figure out part 2, we need to plug in 80 (NOT 80,000 because the y-values are in thousands, meaning we only need to use the number 80) for our y-value and solve for x and we get:
- 80 = 2.16x - 4291.81
- Adding 4291.81 to both sides we get: 4371.81 = 2.16x
- Then dividing both side by 2.16 we get 2023.98 = x ≈2024
29.25 divided by 9 is 3.25. You have to take the total amount of money he made $29.25 and divide it by the amount he gets every hour $9. So 29.25 divided by 9 is 3.25 or 3 hours and 15 minutes.
