Michael practiced batting and kept track of his hits. he missed 2 balls but hit 8 balls that were pitched to him. how many balls can michael predict to hit if he is pitched 20 balls? 4 balls 8 balls 16 balls 18 balls

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael practiced batting and kept track of his hits. He missed 2 balls but hit 8 balls.

Total number of balls pitched to him = 2 + 8 = 10

Number of balls he hit = 8

Percentage of balls he hit

Now we need to find how many balls can Michael predict to hit if he is pitched 20 balls.

Total number of balls pitched = 20

Predicted number of balls hit

Option C is the correct answer.

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
