The scatter plot below shows the linear trend of the number of golf carts a company sold the month of february and a line of best fit representing this trend. a. write a function that models the number of golf carts sold as a function of the number of days in the month of february b. what is the meaning of the slope as a rate of change for this line of best fit.

A). f(x) = (-5)x + 90

Step-by-step explanation:

A). As shown in the graph, line of best fit is passing through two points (0, 90) and (18, 0).

Equation of this line will be in the form of y = mx + b.

Here m = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Since slope of a line passing through two points (x, y) and (x', y') is represented by,

m =

So slope of the line of best fit from the given graph,

'm' =

m = (-5)

y-intercept 'b' = 90

When we plug in these values in the equation,

y = (-5)x + 90

Function representing this situation,

f(x) = -5x + 90

B). Slope of the line of best fit shows the change in sales per day in the month of Feb that is "5 golf carts per day".

Negative notation of the slope shows the decrease in the sales day by day.

2. angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:  

we have been given a diagram of a circle and we are told that measure of arc qvt is 156 degrees.  

we can see from our given diagram that angle qrt and angle qst subtends to arc qvt.

since we know that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are always equal.

by angle subtended by same arc theorem, measure of angle qrt and angle qst will be equal to the measure of arc qvt.

therefore, angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees and 2nd statement is the correct choice.
