Suppose the line of best fit for the height, y, of a plant measured in millimeters after receiving x hours of sunlight is y = 1.7x + 9.7. What is the
meaning of the slope of the line of best it?

The plant is initially 1.7 millimeters tall,

The plant is initially 9.7 millimeters tall.

The plant grows at a rate of 17 millimeters for every 10 hours of sunlight it
receives

The plant grows at a rate of 10 millimeters for every 17 hours of sunlight it
receives

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
