Explain why it makes sense for this situation to have a linear equation

Mathematics

Answer:

The line of best fit for your specific question is a linear equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation has a constant rate of growth/decline and the growth/decline rate will never change in an linear equation.

If you draw a line that approximately splits between all the data plots, you will notice the line you drew is very close to the data points.

If the data plots was a quadratic, it would be very hard to draw a line of best fit.

Linear equations can easily be identified in a graph because it is a straight line.

Perhaps insert this equation into your graphing calculator or other graphing software online (like Desmos): y = 3x+2

A quadratic equation can also easily be identified in a graph because, in most cases, it looks like a U.

Take these examples: y = 3x^2+5x+2 or y=-2x^2+10x+30

Answer:

the answer is C.

Factorise 4a^2+b^2-4ab-8a+4b+4​
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The factorized form of the given expression is  4 [(a-1)^2 - b(a - 1 + \frac{b}{4})]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

4a² + b²  -  4ab  -  8a +  4b   + 4

This expression is factorized as follows;

(4a²  -  8a  + 4)  +  (b² -  4ab + 4b)

(4a² - 4a - 4a + 4)  + b² - 4b(a - 1)

(4a - 4)(a - 1) + b² - 4b(a - 1)

(4a - 4)(a - 1) -  4b(a - 1) + b²

4(a - 1)(a - 1)   -  4b(a - 1) + b²

4(a - 1)²  - 4b(a - 1 + b/4)

4(a- 1)^2 - 4b(a - 1 + \frac{b}{4} )\\\\4 [(a-1)^2 - b(a - 1 + \frac{b}{4})]

Please help 2х -3y =18
siniylev [52]

Answer:

x = 3(6 + y)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x

Add 3y to both sides.

2x = 18 + 3y

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 18 + 3y/2

Factor out the common term 3.

x = 3(6 + y)/2
