The graph below shows the number of forks arranged on different numbers of tables in a room: a graph is shown. the values on the x-axis are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. the values on the y-axis are 0, 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40. points are shown on ordered pairs 0, 0 and 1, 8 and 2, 16 and 3, 24 and 4, 32. these points are connected by a line. the label on the x-axis is number of tables. the title on the y-axis is number of forks. what does the point (1, 8) on the graph represent? the ratio of forks to tables is 9: 1. the ratio of tables to forks is 9: 1. there are 8 forks for every 1 table. there are 8 tables for every 1 fork

Let us imagine that the number of automobile accidents in a certain region are related to the regional number of registered automobiles in tens of thousands (b1), alcoholic beverage sales in $10,000 (b2), and decrease in the price of gasoline in cents (b3). furthermore, imagine that the regression formula has been calculated as: y = a + b1x1 + b2x2 + b3x3 where y = the number of automobile accidents, a = 7.5, b1 = 3.5, b2 = 4.5, and b3 = 2.5 calculate the expected number of automobile accidents for a football weekend if the region has 25,000 registered vehicles, $75,000 worth of beer is sold, and a gas war causes a 10 cent drop in a gallon of gas.
