I think that she could buy 3 tubes of paint because that's $25.50 and that gives you 28.50 for the canvas.
Answer:
Given data, first determine which is the independent variable, x, and which is the dependent variable, y. Enter the data pairs into the regression calculator. Substitute the value for one variable into the equation for the regression line produced by the calculator, and then predict the value of the other variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Enter data into the regression calculator.
- Determine the regression equation.
- Substitute the correct value for x or y into the equation.
- Simplify to find the value of the other variable.
If x=girls,
then we have 3x boys.
We know that all children are boys+girls, so x+3x, which is 4x and 4x is 48, so one x is 12.
So there are 12 girls and 36 boys.
