Answer:
The function is
.
The slope is
.
The y-intercept is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Our aim is to calculate the values <em>m</em> (slope) and <em>b</em> (y-intercept) in the equation of a line :

We have the following data:

To find the line of best fit for the points given, you must:
Step 1: Find
and
as it was done in the table below.
Step 2: Find the sum of every column:

Step 3: Use the following equations to find <em>b</em> and <em>m</em>:

Step 4: Assemble the equation of a line

The graph of the regression line is:
Answer:
It’s D because no lines overlap so it passes the vertical line test
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>At 8in to 250 feet the skyscraper converts to the following.
1.6 in/8 in x 250ft = 50 ft long
2.8in/8in x 250ft = 87.5 ft wide
11.2in/8in x 250ft = 350 ft high
You get this because every 8 in is 250 feet so you need to calculate the ratio of scale to that 8in per 250 feet.</span>
Answer:
- Grayson had 10 inches of snow in his lawn
- the snow falls at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour
- no snow was melting
- the snow has fallen for 3 hours
Let y be the height of the snow in the lawn
Grayson had 10 inches at the beginning (at t=0) so y= 10
3 hours passed so y= 10 + 3*0.5 = 11.5 inches
Grayson had 11.5 inches after three hours
Assuming that the snow continued to fall for an unkhown time t
y = 0.5*t + 10
we had 10 at the beginning so we add 10 (+10)
the snow is growing by 0.5 inches in the single hour so we multiply by 0.5
t is the time and it can 4, 5, 6 ...... hours
Just like a function :
- 0.5 is the slope
- t is the variable
- 10 is the y-intercept
Answer:
106.25
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 85(1.25) = 106.25
I'm not sure how to show the work, i just put it into a calculator
