Pls just answer if you know, don't guess or spam.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you work through it as if you were doing polynomial long division you just have to work through the first step and then compare it to the answer.  In polynomial long division you always divide the leading term of the dividend and divide it by the leading term of the divisor.  In this case 24x^2 /ax = -8x.  So this is a pretty simple calculation to find what a is.  the xs cancel out so you get 24x/a = -8x and from here you can divide both sides by x, multiply both sides by a and then divide both sides by -8.

24x/a = -8

24/a = -8

24 = -8a

-3 = a

Now just follow through with the whole long division to make sure, but using this method should get you the right answer.  

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers

definitely a. the others have almost all data points on one side of the line.
