Are 5(8y - 8) and 40y - 40 equal?

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

5(8y-8) = 5*8y - 5*8 by distributive property. simplify that, you get 40y-40, which is equal to 40y-40.

I hope this helped, please give brainliest if this is correct! Thank you!

answer: 33 ( approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, in the linear regression formula, the slope is the a in the equation y = b + ax ( by comparing it with the general equation of line y = mx + c )

where,

here given table is,

price ($), x   :           18         23       25       29       30       33

pairs sold, y :         16         13         10       8         6       2

so, ,   ,   ,

and   ,

thus, slop of the given line is,

⇒  

⇒   ≈ 33
