Select the correct answer

D.  5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

A population of pea aphids double every week beginning with 300 aphids.

Week 1:   300 × 2 = 600

Week 2:  600 × 2 = 1200

Week 3:  1200 × 2 = 2400

Week 4:  2400 × 2 = 4800

Week 5:  4800 × 2 = 9600

It will take 5 weeks

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33
