Ineed ! determine which of the following students best represent each given situation below and correct the work of the student who was incorrect.

1. Frankie is right.

2. Frankie is right.

3. Dean is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Dean started at 0 instead of 1 while plugging in values of x .

2. the left column is the p values so if you plug in 5 for p in Dean's equation c = 20 instead of the actual value of 28.

3. Frankie gives no equation just states the variables.

something over 10 so ? /10

step-by-step explanation:

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
