Using a calculator, the line of best fit for the function is given by:

y = 51.7x - 5.7.

<h3>How to find the equation of linear regression using a calculator?</h3>

To find the equation, we need to insert the points (x,y) in the calculator. For this problem, a linear regression is used because the data only increases.

From the given table, the points are:

(1, 68), (2,97), (3, 134), (4, 176), (5, 241), (6,335).

Inserting these points on the calculator, the line of best fit for the function is given by:

y = 51.7x - 5.7.

What is the solution of |5x| = 70?

kondaur [170]

Answer:

$x=-14\:or\:x=14$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$|5x|=70$

This implies that;

$5x=70\:or\:-5x=70$

Solve for x to obtain;

$x=\frac{70}{5}\:or\:x=\frac{70}{-5}$

$x=14\:or\:x=-14$

Write an equation for each line that contains the given pair of points. (-6,1) (2,3)

Travka [436]

Answer:

y = .25x + 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope which is m in y = mx + b. y = mx + b is the standard form for a line.

m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

m = (3-1)/(2+6)

m = 2/8

m = 1/4

Plug that in.

y = 1/4x + b

To find b plug in one of the two points and solve.

3 = 1/4(2) + b

3 = 1/2 + b

3 - 1/2 = 1/2 - 1/2 + b

2.5 = b

What function equation is represented by the graph?

Ahat [919]

In the given graph, lets mark two points:

Let $A = (0,-3)$ and $B = (4,-2)$

The slope of the line is given by:

$m = \frac{(-2)-(-3)}{(4)-(0)}$

$m = \frac{-2+3}{4}$

$m = \frac{1}{4}$

The equation of the line is given by:

$(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)$

$(y-(-3))=(\frac{1}{4})(x-0)$

$4(y+3)=x$

$4y+12=x$

$4y=x-12$

$y= \frac{1}{4}x-3$

Therefore, the function equation represented by the graph is: $f(x)= \frac{1}{4}x-3$
