C. 75. The median is the middle number in the sequence
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
parallel lines have the same slope
The slope-intercept form of a linear equatio is y=mx+b, where m stands for the "slope of the line" and b stands for the "y-intercept of the line"
They give you the equation y= -5/6x+3 Notice this is already on the slope-intercept form, so in this case the slope is -5/6 and the y-intercept is 3
You want an equation of the line that is parallel to the given line. The slopes must be the same, so m=-5/6
So far we have y=-5/6x + b
We don't have b yet but that can be found using the given point (6,-1) which tells you that "x is 6 when y is -1"
Replace that on the equation y=-5/6x + b and you get
-1 = (-5/6)(6) + b
-1 = -5 +b
4 = b
b = 4
We found b, or the y-intercept
Go back to the equation y = -5/6 x + b and replace this b with the b we just found
y = -5/6x + 4
2 pairs of lines that intersect
54153 square miles is equivalent to 34657920 acres. 750000 divided by 34657920 is about 0.022, which is also 2.2%
98 million divided by 750000 is about 1306.67, so the population density of the trees is 1306.67 trees per acre
292 million divided by 98 million is very close to 3, so about 3 boxes were produced per tree, on average
