Just before her party starts, Jane fills a cooler with 80 cups of ice. She also starts filling glasses with ice, 0.8 cups each.
1 answer:
The equation that shows how the total number of cups of ice used, y, depends on the number of glasses filled, x, is
Filling the cooler is an illustration of a linear function
A linear function is represented as:
Where
- m represents the slope/rate
- b represents the y-intercept/the initial value
- x and y are the variables
By comparison, we have the following parameters
--- the amount of cups per ice
---- the initial amount of cup
So, the equation that represents this scenario is

scatterplot relating to the question is attached below.
Answer: Negative ; Strong
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture of the scatter plot Given, it could be observed that the trend of the scatter points exhibits a negative gradient as the points on the graph slopes downward depicting that an inverse relationship exists between the two variables. With weight decreasing as miles per gallon increases. The relationship between the two variables depicted by the scatter plot is strong as the slope of the point is looks moderately steep.
