Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question we can form the following 3 equations (in the order of the first 3 sentences)

w = 2h (twice the price)

t = h - 4 ($4 less)

3w + 2h + 5t = 136 (total purchasing and cost)

We can solve all 3 equations for h first, by substituting the first two equations, into the third equations w and t

3(2h) + 2h + 5(h-4) = 136

Simplify

6h + 2h + 5h - 20 = 136

13h = 136 + 20

13h = 156

h = 156/13

h = $12

Using this information, we can solve for w and t

w = 2h

w = 2(12)

w = $24

And finally

t = h - 4

t = 12 - 4

t = $8

What is the equation of the line of the best fit for the following data? Round to the slope and y-intercept of the line to three

BigorU [14]

Answer:

D. $y=-0.927x+13.634$

Step-by-step explanation:

We graph the points on the graph. The graph is attached.

Let us take two points (1, 14) and (15, 1), and calculate the slope $m$ between them <em>(we choose these points because the line passing through them will be the best fit for all points) </em>

$m=\frac{14-1}{1-15} =\frac{13}{-14} =-0.9286$

Thus we have the equation

$y=-0.9286x+b$

Let us now calculate $b$ from the point $(1,14)$

$14=-0.9286(1)+b$

$b=14.9286$

So the equation we get is

$y=-0.9286x+14.9286$

Let us now turn to the choices given and see which choice is closest to our equation: we see that choice D. $y=-0.927x+13.634$ is the closest one, so we pick it.

Find the difference -4 -5

madam [21]

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about the Keep and change rule, since this is negative, the more negative numbers there are the more it will go deeper. -4 - 5 is -9 because just create a number line and place -4 one it, then jump backwards 5 times.
