A. Y=30/11 x- 1,842/11
B.y=11/30 x+111
C. y=30/11x + 3,558/11
D. y=11/30x+ 45


Sagot :

Answer:  D:  y = (11/30)x + 45

[Note:  The list is missing a data point.  I did what I could]

Step-by-step explanation:

See data plot.

The equation states that a minium expected grade with no study time is 45 percent.  Every mionute studied after that adds (11/30) percent to the grade.  E.g., 90 minutes of study:

(11/30)*(90) = 33

Add to 45 to get a predicted score of (33 + 45) = 78
