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.

What directed number is suggested by the statement "I gained 3 pounds "?​
sammy [17]

Answer:

The directed number suggested is +3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A directed number is one that has either a positive or negative sign, so that it could be easily located on the number line. Thus, the sign shows the direction of the number. Examples are: -2, -1, +5, +6 etc.

From the given question, let the initial weight be represented by W, then:

I gained 3 pounds implies at that; 3 pounds was added to my initial weight. Thus, my present weight is my initial weight + 3 pounds.

i.e I gained 3 pounds ⇒ W + 3

So that the directed number suggested by the statement is +3.

Kayla wants to find the width, AB, of a river. She walks along the edge of the river 65 ft and marks point C. Then she walks 25
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Part A) The triangles ABC and EDC are similar by AAA, because the three internal angles are equal in both triangles

Part B) The width of the river is about 39\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent

Part A) we know that

In this problem , triangles ABC and CDE are similar by AAA, because its corresponding angles are congruent

so

m<DCE=m<ACB -----> by vertical angles  

m<EDC=m<ABC -----> is a right angle

m<DEC=m<CAB -----> the sum of the internal angles must be equal to 180 degrees

Part B) we know that

The triangles ABC and EDC are similar -------> see Part A

therefore

\frac{BC}{DC}=\frac{AB}{DE}

substitute the values and solve for AB

\frac{65}{25}=\frac{AB}{15}

AB=15*(\frac{65}{25})=39\ ft

A fruit stand has to decide what to charge for their produce. They need \$10$10dollar sign, 10 for 4 apples and 4 oranges. They
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

The prices are inconsistent, so there is no unique price that can be set for either an apple or an orange that will give the total prices indicated.

__

The first relation can be written as ...

  $10 = 4A +4O

  $10 = 4(A +O) . . . . factor out 4

  $2.50 = A +O . . . . divide by 4

The second relation can be written as ...

  $12 = 6A +6O

  $12 = 6(A +O) . . . . factor out 6

  $2 = A +O . . . . . . . divide by 6

These two relations give different prices for 1 apple and 1 orange. There is no price that can be set for either fruit that will give this result.

No unique prices can be assigned.

A baker recorded the number of batches of
azamat

Answer:

B. The lower extreme increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the original box and whisker plot, the lower extreme (minimum) is 5 ; The upper extreme, maximum is 15.

The number of batches baked on the eight day is 20. This exceeds tbe previous maximum value. Hence, upper extreme( maximum) value of the new plot will change from 15 to 20.

The lower extreme isn't affected as the obtained value isn't below 5.

The median value will Increase and the upper quartile value will also increase. Once the upper quartile value increases, the interquartile range will also increase
