4.5(4-x) + 36 = 202 - 2.5(3x + 28)
Distributive property
18 - 4.5x + 36 = 202 - 7.5x - 70
Combine like terms
-4.5x + 54 = -7.5x + 132
Add 7.5x to both sides
3x = 78
Divide both sides by 3
x = 26
Answer:
B. or the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear regression line y=2.1x+130 predicts sales based on the money spent on advertising.
Linear regression represents the relationship between two variables. the value of y depends on the value of x.
x represents the dollars spent in advertising and y represents the company sales in dollars.
We need to find out sales y when $150 spends on advertising.
Plug in 150 for x and find out y
y = 2.1 x + 130
y = 2.1 (150) + 130
y= 445
The company expects $445 in sales
400/2 = 200
200 + 20 = 220
200 - 20 = 180
Answer: He had gone 220 miles.
He was 180 miles from the finish and 220 from the start, so he was 40 miles closer to the finish than to the start.
