Math Scores vs. Hours Spent Studying Science Scores vs. Hours Spent Studying Spelling Scores vs. Hours Spent Studying History Scores vs. Hours Spent Studying
The answer is C)Spelling Scores vs. Hours Spent Studying
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the answer because if you look at all of the other options, then you will see that they have a steeper slope, you could also calculate and find for slope if u are still unsure :) hope this helps
To determine this you could think of it in a couple ways.
1. If it takes 1/10 of a bag of fertilizer to put around 1 tree, he can fertilize 10 trees with 1 bag because there are 10 groups of 1/10 in a bag. Take 10 x 40 because there are 40 bags and get 400 trees to be fertilized.
2. You can divide 40 by 1/10 as the other strategy. This is the same as 40 x 10/1.
