The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories (in thousands) and x is years after 1960. Choose the correct statement.
Answer: In the given regression equation, the calories are in thousands. Therefore, the slope 0.005 (0.005 x 1000 =5 calories) means the consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year.
Hence the option a. Consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year. is correct
Answer:
x=-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
add 2 to both sides
3x=x-1
subtract x from both sides
2x=-1
divide by 2
x=-1/2
Well, it depends, there may be multiple common factors, if it's the greatest common factor, then there is only one. The way to do this is to list all the factors of each number.
So Factors of
18: 1,2,3,6,9,18
27: 1,3,9,27
Common Factors : 1, 3, 9
Greatest Common Factor: 9
