Question

the equation for the line of best fit is y = 20x - 12. according to the equation, which of these statements is true? a person who shares 12 poems would likely gain about 228 new subscribers. a person who shares 7 poems would likely gain about 152 new subscribers.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute x = 12 into the equation

$y = 20\times12- 12$

Step2: Calculate the value of y

$y=240 - 12=228$

Step3: Substitute x = 7 into the equation

$y = 20\times7-12$

Step4: Calculate the value of y

$y = 140-12 = 128
eq152$

Answer:

A. A person who shares 12 poems would likely gain about 228 new subscribers.
