Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define
</u>
y = home runs
x = hits
[Best Line of Fit] y = 0.15x - 1.5
<em>We can use this to predict the average of the scatter plot.
</em>
hits = x = 200 times
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em><u> home runs</u>
- Substitute [BLF]: y = 0.15(200) - 1.5
- Multiply: y = 30 - 1.5
- Subtract: y = 28.5
Remember that this is only a <em>prediction.</em> Actual data can vary. The best line of fit tells us that if a player hits 200 times, we would get approximately 28.5 home runs.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:a=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
4a + -5 + 2a + 9 = 28
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 9 + 4a + 2a = 28
Combine like terms: -5 + 9 = 4
4 + 4a + 2a = 28
Combine like terms: 4a + 2a = 6a
4 + 6a = 28
Solving
4 + 6a = 28
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 6a = 28 + -4
Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 6a = 28 + -4
6a = 28 + -4
Combine like terms: 28 + -4 = 24
6a = 24
Divide each side by '6'.
a = 4
Simplifying
a = 4
