Answer:

friend alone could do it in 13 hours and 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Your rate = room/8

friends rate = room/x

combined rate = room/8 + room/x

= room(x+8)/(8x)

then

5 = room / [room(x+8)/(8x)]

5 = 8x/(x+8)

8x = 5x + 40

3x = 40

x = 40/3 = 13 1/3

friend alone could do it in 13 hours and 1/3

Why is a regression line referred to as the line of best fit?
aalyn [17]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

When there is a linear relationship is observed between the variables, we use  linear regression predict the relationship between them.

Also, we predict the values for dependent variable by modelling a linear model that best fits the data by drawing a line Y=a+bX, where X is the explanatory variable and Y is the dependent variable.

In other words: The line of best fit is a line through a scatter plot of data points that best describes the relationship between them.

That's why the  regression line referred to as the line of best fit.
