Answer:

The estimated fixed manufacturing overhead is $495,000, wich is the fixed element of the linear equation. The activity level is represented by X, which is the number of machine hours.

The correct statement is the last statement.

Liner equation is Y = a + bx

Where Y represents the total overhead, which is the dependent variable

           a represents the fixed cost, which is $495,000

           b represents the variable element

           x represents the activity level (machine hours)
