Fifth grade 120 dollars sixth grade 180 dollars seventh grade 240 dollars eighth grade 300 dollars. a. write three statements that the principal could make
when comparing the goals each grade has set. b. the teachers set a goal of $225. write two statements the principal could use to compare this goal to the eighth graders' goal

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
