Answer:
slope: 5/7
0.714 mile per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
slope: find the point where the line is right on the line graph, put y/x which is 10/14 make the fraction smaller which is 10/14 = 5/7(I divide the denominator and nominator by 2)
Mile per hour: 5/7 cross multiply with x/1, make into an equation:
7x=5 x 1
7x = 5
x = 0.714
Let's actually find the line of best fit...
m=(nΣyx-ΣyΣx)/(nΣx^2-ΣxΣx)
m=(11*836-130*55)/(11*385-3025)
m=2046/1210
m=93/55
b=(Σy-93Σx/55)/n
b=(55Σy-93Σx)/(55n)
b=(7150-5115)/(55*11)
b=185/55, so the line of best fit is:
y=(93x+185)/55
A) The approximate y-intercept (the value of y when x=0) is 185/55≈3.36.
Which means that those who do not practice at all will win about 3.36 times
B) y(13)=(93x+185)/55
y(13)≈25.34
So after 13 months of practice one would expect to win about 25.34 times.
Answer: The string of lights will have to be 144 inches long

Answer:
See attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to graph the system
2x+y=8
-x+2y=6
Let us rewrite the lines in slope intercept form:
y=-2x+8

The first line has a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of 8
The second line has a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of 3
We can no graph the lines as shown in the attachment.
