Carmen drew line A and line B in the two scatter plots shown. one scatter plot contains 12 points indicating a negative correlat

ion and line A, which passes through the middle of points, with 6 above and 6 below, touching none of them; the other scatter plot contains 12 points indicating a positive correlation and line B, which passes through four of the points and sits above the other 8 points. Which statement is true? Both line A and line B are well-placed lines of best fit. Only line A is a well-placed line of best fit. Only line B is a well-placed line of best fit. Neither line A nor line B are well-placed lines of best fit.

The true statement is that only line A is a well-placed line of best fit

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The scatter plots are not given. However, the question can still be answered

The features of the given lines of best fits are:

<u>Line A</u>

  • 12 points in total
  • Negative correlation
  • Passes through the 12 points with 6 on either sides

<u>Line B</u>

  • 12 points in total
  • Positive correlation
  • Passes through the 12 points with 8 and 4 in either sides

For a line of best fit to be well-placed, the line must divide the points on the scatter plot equally.

From the given features, we can see that line A can be considered as a good line of best fit, because it divides the points on the scatter plot equally.

A cardboard box without a lid is to be made with a volume of 4 ft 3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amo
Blababa [14]

Answer:

<h2><em>2ft by 2ft by 1 ft</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface of the cardboard box is expressed as S = 2LW + 2WH + 2LH where L is the length of the box, W is the width and H is the height of the box. Since the cardboard box is without a lid, then the total surface area will be expressed as;

S  = lw+2wh+2lh ... 1

Given the volume V = lwh = 4ft³ ... 2

From equation 2;

h = 4/lw

Substituting into r[equation 1;

S = lw + 2w(4/lw)+ 2l(4/lw)

S = lw+8/l+8/w

Differentiating the resulting equation with respect to w and l will give;

dS/dw = l + (-8w⁻²)

dS/dw = l - 8/w²

Similarly,

dS/dl = w  + (-8l⁻²)

dS/dw = w - 8/l²

At turning point, ds/dw = 0 and ds/dl = 0

l - 8/w² = 0 and w - 8/l² = 0

l = 8/w²  and w =8/l²

l = 8/(8/l² )²

l = 8/(64/I⁴)

l = 8*l⁴/64

l = l⁴/8

8l = l⁴

l³ = 8

l = ∛8

l = 2

Hence the length of the box is 2 feet

Substituting l = 2 into the function l = 8/w² to get the eidth w

2 = 8/w²

1 = 4/w²

w² = 4

w = 2 ft

width of the cardboard is 2 ft

Since Volume = lwh

4 = 2(2)h

4 = 4h

h = 1 ft

Height of the cardboard is 1 ft

<em>The dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard is 2ft by 2ft by 1 ft</em>

A man is 13 times as old as his son is. In 10 years he will be 3 times as old as his son is now. How old are they now?
valkas [14]

Answer:

the son is 2

man is 26

+10 yrs

son=12

man=36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the son's age be x.

Then the father's age is 13x.

In ten years their ages will be (x+10) and (13x+10).

(13x+10)=3(x+10)

13x+10=3x+30

10x=20

x=2

The son is 2 years old.
