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.

I need help.<br> Math is really hard
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The value of x in terms of b is: \mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function: -2(bx-5)=16

First we need to find

The value of x in terms of b

We need to find value of x

-2(bx-5)=16

Multiply -2 with terms inside the bracket

-2bx+10=16

Subtract 10 from both sides

-2bx+10-10=16-10\\-2bx=6

Divide both sides by -2b

\frac{-2bx}{-2b}=\frac{6}{-2b}\\x=-\frac{6}{2b}

So, The value of x in terms of b is: \mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

The value of x when b is 3

We have the equation for the value of x in terms of b:

\mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

Put b = 3

x=-\frac{6}{2(3)}\\x=-\frac{6}{6}\\x=-1

So, The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1

One positive integer is 5 times another positive integer and their product is 320. What are the positive integers?​
seropon [69]

Answer:

The integers are (x, y) = (40, 8).

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 5y

xy = 320

Substitute the first equation into the second equation.

(5y)(y) = 320

5y^2 = 320

y^2 = 64

y = 8 (y must be positive)

The integers are (x, y) = (40, 8).
