D: y = -1.560x + 4.105

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope-intercept form of a linear equation:  [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where:

[tex]m[/tex] is the slope[tex]b[/tex] is the y-intercept

To determine the equation of the line of best fit from the given answer options, examine the relationship between the x and y values.

From inspection of the data, we can see that as x increases, y increases.  Therefore, the slope of the equation will be positive.

(If the y-values decrease as the x-values increase, then the slope would be negative).  

Therefore, we can immediately discount answer options B and D as they have negative slopes.

The x and y values are not very far away from each other.  The options given for the slope are either 1.560 or 4.105.  If the slope was 4.105, we would expect to see values of y that were further away from the x-values.

Therefore, the line of best fit is:

A:  y = 1.560x - 4.105

To prove this, plot the 5 points on a graph and draw a line of best fit (see attached).

Choose 2 points on the line of best fit:  (4, 2) and (11, 13)

Use the slope formula with these points to calculate the approximate slope:

[tex]\implies \sf slope\:(m)=\dfrac{change\:in\:y}{change\:in\:x}\approx\dfrac{13-2}{11-4}=\dfrac{11}{7}=1.57[/tex]

Thus proving that y = 1.560x - 4.105 is an appropriate option for the equation of the line of best fit.

Sonji bought a combination lock that opens with a four-digit number created using the digits 0 through 9. The same digit cannot be used more than once in the combination.

If Sonji wants the last digit to be a 7 and the order of the digits matters, how many ways can the remaining digits be chosen?

Answers

Answer:

504 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that since Sonji wants the last digit to be 7 and that numbers don't repeat, there are only 9 possibilities for the first digit, 8 possibilities for the second digit, 7 possibilities for the third digit, and 1 possibility for the fourth digit (which is 7).

g(x) = -4x+1,

Then the subtraction of the two function;

g(x) - f(x)

= -4x+1 - (x²+2x-4 )

= -4x+1 - x²- 2x + 4

A yardstick measures distance to 1/4, or 0.25, of an inch. What is the most
appropriate way to report a length measured using this yardstick?

Answers

The most appropriate way to report a length measured by using this yardstick is to write the measurement in decimals (0.25) rather than in fraction (¼).

What is measurement?

Measurement is a process through which the size, dimensions, or other physical quantities of magnitude that are associated with an object is taken, especially for use in a scientific research and experiment.

In Mathematics, a yardstick refers to a graduated measuring stick that has its length equal to one yard.

In this scenario, the most appropriate way to report a length measured by using this yardstick is to write the measurement in terms of decimals (0.25), so as to make easy approximations of the distance possible.

To find the mean absolute deviation, find the mean of the data then find the average distance of each data point from the mean.
