Linear regression

Let's graph the points of the given table, where the Speed will correspond to the x axis and the gallons to the y axis.

We have the following plot:

Let's draw a line that join the first point (20, 23) and the last point (50,35)

We have that this line is a good approximation to a linear regression of the data.

If we observe the point where x = 62 mph, we will se that y obtains a value of 40:

Then, we have that if she drives at 62 mph she will use approximately ≈40 gallons

The choice that bests fits 40 gallons is 39.

<h2>Answer: A. 39 gallons</h2>

If we verify with a calculator, we will have that the linear regression is given by the green line

leva [86]

Answer:

-60

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective is to state whether or not the following limit exists

                                \lim_{x \to -2}  \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2}.

First, we simplify the expression in the numerator of the fraction.

3(2x-1)^2 -75 = 3(4x^2 - 4x +1) -75 = 12x^2 - 12x + 3 - 75 = 12x^2 - 12x -72

Now, we obtain

                         12(x^2-x-6) = 12(x+2)(x-3)

and the fraction is transformed into

                       \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2} =  \frac{12(x+2)(x-3)}{x+2} = 12 (x-3)

Therefore, the following limit is

       \lim_{x \to -2}  \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2} = \lim_{x \to -2}  12(x-3) = 12 \lim_{x \to -2} (x-3)

You can plug in -2 in the equation, hence

                        12 \lim_{x \to -2} (x-3) = 12 (-2-3) = -60

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

C. 272

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know 85% of the students participated last year we can assume the same amount will participate this year so to find the answer you simply do the total number of students (320) multiplied by 85% or .85 to get the best guess of how many students will participate this year.
