a word with 11 letters would likely score about 45 points.
a word with 4 letters would likely score about 75 points.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute \(x = 11\) into the equation \(y=4x + 0.75\)

\(y=4\times11+0.75=44 + 0.75=44.75\approx45\)

Step2: Substitute \(x = 4\) into the equation \(y = 4x+0.75\)

\(y=4\times4+0.75=16+0.75 = 16.75
eq75\)

Answer:

A. A word with 11 letters would likely score about 45 points.
