Question

learning to ride a unicycle
the equation for the line of best fit is ( y = - 2 x + 25 ). according to the equation, which of these statements is true?
ezra will probably fall about 1 time on the 12th day.
ezra will probably fall about 7 times on the 11th day.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute \(x = 12\) into the equation \(y=-2x + 25\)

When \(x = 12\), \(y=-2\times12 + 25=-24 + 25 = 1\)

Step2: Substitute \(x = 11\) into the equation \(y=-2x + 25\)

When \(x = 11\), \(y=-2\times11+25=-22 + 25 = 3\)

Answer:

Ezra will probably fall about 1 time on the 12th day.
