Harvey knows he is 40 yards from the school, on his map app on his phone it shows that the school is 3/4 of an inch from his current location. If he is 3 inches from home on the map, how far is Harvey's house from the school? Do not include unit in the answer.

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

except if the answer is in the value of money, then, it will matter. it will have to be $0.40, but i can tell this is not a money question, so .4 should be the right one.
