The slope is -4 and the y-intercept is -12.
The variables have a negative association/correlation, because when one value increases (ex: x) the other decreases (see y)
If you would put a line through the dataset most of the points would be quite a bit off the line so the association is only moderate and not strong
so the answer is it is a "moderate negative association"
Given:
The equation is:

To find:
The value of a.
Solution:
We have,

On simplification, we get




On comparing both sides, we get




And,




Therefore, the value of a is 2.
15% x
100 1.15 X is your variable, your unknown number and 15% has to always be over 100 , Then you have to cross multiply and divide 100 because that is the only number basically you have to just multiply across and divide 100 to make it to the nearest cent you have to round the last two numbers after the decimal Representing money.. Hope this helps!!
11/28, -11/4 is the point form for substitution 11/28 is x and -11/4 is y
