Louann= 14x+24
Carla= 16x+14
So basically this is just like solving equations. The way I did this was just put random numbers for x and then solve it.
First attempt:
14(7)+24=16(7)+14
98+24=112+14
122=126
Okay the first one didn't work so I use 6 for x.
Second attempt:
14(6)+24=16(6)+14
84+24=96+14
108=110
So 6 didn't work and you already should know that the answers should be between 1 and 5.
So now I going to do 5 for x
Third attempt:
14(5)+24=16(5)+14
70+24=80=14
94=94
And so the answer is 5! :D The multiply choice questions were worth 5 points and Louann and Carla had 94 for their scores! I hope this help you out and clear for you! :D
15 is the answer i divided
Answer:
Rate of change of y is 
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
The value for the original mean = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the original value of the mean.
Let the number of samples be n
Mathematically;
mean = Total value/n
Now, we added 8 to each of values; total value added = 8 * n = 8n
Now, for the new mean of 40; we have
(Total value + 8n)/n = 40
Total value + 8n = 40n
Total value = 40n -8n
Total value = 32n
kindly recall from the beginning of the solution;
mean = Total value/n
mean = 32n/n
mean = 32
So the original value of the mean is 32
