Answer:

d) Squared differences between actual and predicted Y values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression is called "least squares" regression line. The line takes the form = a + b*X where a and b are both constants. Value of Y and X is specific value of independent variable.Such formula could be used to generate values of given value X.

For example,

suppose a = 10 and b = 7. If X is 10, then  predicted value for Y of 45 (from 10 + 5*7). It turns out that with any two variables X and Y. In other words, there exists one formula that will produce the best, or most accurate predictions for Y given X. Any other equation would not fit as well and would predict Y with more error. That equation is called the least squares regression equation.

It minimize the squared difference between actual and predicted value.

What is the solution set of the equation x ^ 2 - 3x - 10 = 0 ? pls show work
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Factors :- (x - 5) (x + 2)

Values :- x = 5, x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

= > x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

= > x^2 - (5 - 2)x - 10 = 0

= > x^2 - 5x + 2x - 10 = 0

= > x (x - 5) + 2 (x - 5) = 0

= > (x + 2) ( x - 5) = 0...factors

= > x = 5, - 2...values

Y = -5x + 15 2x + y = 12
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

x = 1, y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -5x + 15 --- Equation 1

2x + y = 12 --- Equation 2

Substitute y = -5x + 15 into Equation 2:

2x + y = 12

2x - 5x + 15 = 12

Evaluate like terms.

15 - 3x = 12

Isolate -3x.

-3x = 12 - 15

Evaluate like terms.

-3x = -3

Find x.

x = -3 ÷ -3

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into Equation 2:

2x + y = 12

2(1) + y = 12

2 + y = 12

Isolate y.

y = 12 - 2

y = 10
