Question 1184812: Are my choices correct? I want to check my answers.
Sean created this table to represent the balance of his loan, y, over a period of months, x. The equation for the line of best fit for Sean’s table of data is y = -115.9x + 8,007.30.

i think month 70.

the remaining balance will reach 0 in 8007.3 / 11.9 = 69.0880069 months.

the balance will not have reached 0 by the end of the 69th month.

it will have reached 0 by the end of the 70th month.

69 * 115.9 = 7997.1.

that's still not enough to get the balance to becomes 0.

70 * 115.9 = 8113.

that's more than enough to get the balance to become 0.

i would go with 70.
