The graph below shows the number of minutes played and the points scored per game for several professional basketball players. based on the line of best fit, approximately how many minutes would a person have played if they scored 30 points? all of my points to right answer!

Option A, 45 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph attached line of the best fit passes through two points (27, 14) and (36, 22).

These are the points which are not the scatter points but lying on the line.

Let the equation of the line be y = mx + c

Where m = slope and c = y-intercept.

Since slope m =

                        = = = 0.88

This line passes through another point on x-axis (11,0).

So equation passing through (11,0) will be

0 = (0. 88) × 11 + c

c = -9.68

Finally equation of the line will be

y = 0.88x - 9.68

Now we have to find the time at which scored 30 points.

By putting y = 30 in the equation

30 = 0.88x - 9.68

x = = 45

Option A is the answer.

i'm pretty sure it's 477,585,296, but perhaps my math is incorrect.

answer: x=60
