OpenStudy (amistre64):

you might want to develop the line equation (im assuming they are lines) and see where they cross

OpenStudy (amistre64):

linear regressions then?

OpenStudy (dobby1):

How would i do that.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i need to know more about the context of the question ... the data is not strictly a line

OpenStudy (dobby1):

My question only gave me the info i gave you

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i know, and the question is part of some class; that class contains material that it covers; and the material that it covers will help me to understand how to proceed.

OpenStudy (dobby1):

My class is algebra 2 this lesson is on solving equations using tables and graphs

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i dont spose youve covered any regression models?

OpenStudy (dobby1):

i dont think so

OpenStudy (amistre64):

my ti83 gives me a few linear regression equations; the rest is to equate them y = 4100x + 300 y = 1900x+19900

OpenStudy (amistre64):

let x be the month we are looking for

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the other way would be to plot the points and draw rough lines to see where they meet

OpenStudy (dobby1):

which sould you suggest because i am really confused

OpenStudy (amistre64):

plotting lines would be the "simplest" if mathing it is not your speed

OpenStudy (dobby1):

ok but i still dont under stand how I am sapposed to graph them

OpenStudy (amistre64):

plot the points: 1,4000 2,9000 3,13000 etc draw a rough line to approximate it then for the other one: 1,22000 2,24000 3,25000 etc

OpenStudy (amistre64):

maybe a high low estimation of a line to determine a slope with define the line from (1,4000) to (6,21000) and define the line from (1,22000) to (6,30000) see where they cross

OpenStudy (dobby1):

ok i will give it a try thx

OpenStudy (amistre64):

youre welcome, ive got to get back to work :) ill try to chk in later to see if your progress

OpenStudy (dobby1):

ok
