Julie gathered data about the numbers of pages and chapters in several books by her favorite author. The equation of the line of best fit is y = 15.261x + 8.83. Based on the line of best fit, approximately how many pages are predicted to be in a book with 8 chapters? A. 113 B. 122 C. 131 D. 193

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the approximate number of pages in the chapters, what we need to do is to substitute for the value of x in the line of best fit equation.

Thus, we have;

y = 15.261(8) + 8.83 = 122.088 + 8.83 = 130.918

This is approximately equal to 131

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

1 x=22.52

2: 65/39=604+39x

65x-39x=604

26x=604

x=604/26

×=23.23
