a researcher wants to examine the relationship between fat and calories in fast food. data was analyzed using linear regression.

fat grams in the food represented x (the independent variable) and total calories in the food item was represented by y. the slope was 13 and the y intercept was 143. predict how many calories would be in a sandwich containing 32 grams of fat?

The predicted number of calories in a sandwich containing 32 grams of fat is 559.

<h3>What is the slope intercept form?</h3>

In algebra, the slope-intercept form of a linear equation is a typical approach to express a line on a graph. A linear equation is written as y = mx + b in standard form.

The y-intercept, or place where the line crosses the y-axis, is represented by the letters b and m, respectively. The point where the lines contacts the y-axis is known as the y-intercept, and the slope is a measurement of how steep the line is. Because it explicitly displays the slope and y-intercept, this equation's form is known as the slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope, x is the value of the independent variable, and b is the y-intercept. In this case, the slope is 13 and the y-intercept is 143. So, the equation of the line of best fit is:

y = 13x + 143

To predict the number of calories in a sandwich containing 32 grams of fat, you can plug in 32 for x in the equation:

y = 13 * 32 + 143

y = 416 + 143

Since we know what he earns hourly, and his sales, we can figure out his full gross pay for the week.
As so:

We can set up an equation like this:
<em>h</em> = hours
<em>s</em> = sales
9.60h + 5%s

Now, we substitute.
9.60(35) + 5%(230)

Next, solve.
336.00 + 11.50
$347.50

$347.50 was Glen's gross pay for the week.

Hope I could help! If my math is wrong, or I did not provide the answer you were looking for, let me know! However, if I did well, please consider marking as <em>Brainliest!

You have 400 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular plot. Find the length and width of the plot that will maximize the area. W
3241004551 [841]
Well, we can denote L and W for the length and width respectively. Lets say the A is the area, we have: 1. A=(L × W) as well as 2. 2(L+W)=400. We rearrange the second equation to get 3. W=200-L. From this, we can see that 0<L<200. Substitute the third equation into the first to get A=(200L-L²). put this formula into the scientific calculator and you will find a parabola with a maximum. That would be the maximum area of the enclosed area. Alternatively, we can say that L is between 0 and 200 when the area equals 0. (The graph you find will be  area against length). As the maximum is generally found halfway, we substitute 100 into the equation and we end up with 10000.

Hope this helps.

HELPPPPP NEEDED FIRST GETS BRAINLLEST !!!! Your dad is designing a new garden for your backyard. He has 26 feet of fencing to go
barxatty [35]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the width of the yard x and the length x + 3½. Since we know that perimeter = 2 * (width + length) and that the perimeter must be 26 we can write:

2 * (x + x + 3½) = 26

x + x + 3½ = 13

2x + 3½ = 13

2x = 9½

x = 4\frac{3}{4}
