A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $500 and the daily rate for each partner is $1000. The law firm assigned a total of 14 lawyers to the case and was able to charge the client $12000 per day for these lawyers' services. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of associates assigned to the case, x, x, and the number partners assigned to the case, yy.

the answer is a if my teacher taught me correct

hard

step-by-step explanation:

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
