Answer:

(a) y = 4.5x  + 22 -- The equation

(b) 31 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Solving (a): The equation of the trend line.

We start  by calculating the slope (m)

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where

(x_1,y_1) = (0,22)

(x_2,y_2) = (4,40)

So, we have:

m = \frac{40 - 22}{4 - 0}

m = \frac{18}{4}

m = 4.5

The equation is then calculated using:

y = m(x-x_1)+y_1

Where:

(x_1,y_1) = (0,22)

m = 4.5

y = 4.5(x - 0) + 22

Open bracket

y = 4.5x - 0 + 22

y = 4.5x  + 22

(b) The height of a 2 year old.

To do this, we substitute 2 for x in y = 4.5x  + 22

y = 4.5 * 2 + 22

y = 9+ 22

y = 31

The prediction is 31 inches

The whole entire line measures 49

DB measures 30

49 - 30 = 19 or ED

But we’re looking for EC so…

19 + 16 = 35

EC = 35

1. Evaluate each expression when x = -2 and y = 3.
borishaifa [10]
a) 3(-2) + 4(3) = -6 + 12 = 6

b) 2(-2) -3(3) +5 = -4 -9 + 5 = -8

c) 4(-2) -(3) = -8 -3 = -11

d) -(-2) -2(3) = 4 -6 = -2

e) (1/2)(-2) +(3) = -1 +3 = 2

f) (2/3)(3) -(1/2)(-2) = 2 + 1 = 3

A high school football team won 80% of the games they played. If they played 35 games, how many games did they win?
crimeas [40]

Step-by-step explanation:

formuale \\ \%wom = total \: win \:  \times 100\% \div total \: matches \: played

let x be total much won

80\% = x \times 100\% \div 35 \\  x= 35 \times 80 \div 100 \\ x = 7 \times 4 \\ x = 28

so they team had won 28 matches.

I hope the team has best players : )
