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

Mathematics

IgorC [24]3 years ago

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

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

$28

Step-by-step explanation:

First to solve this get the original amount before his parents gave him $6

20-6=14

So he had $14 after spending it at the batting cages.

It is stated he spent half of his money there so multiply 14 by 2

14 x 2=28

So he has a weekly allowance of $28

To determine his gross pay, we need the amount of money he earns per hour and the rate of overtime per hour since he exceeded 40 hours of work. But since the rate for his overtime was not given. A general expression is what the most I can do. It is as follows:

Gross pay = 13.40(49) + overtime rate(9) 

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Find a vector equation and parametric equations for the line. (Use the parameter t.)The line through the point (4, 2.1, 3.1) and
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Vector equation:

(4 + 6t, 2.1 + 4t, 3.1 - 2t)

Parametric equations:

x(t) = 4 + 6t

y(t) = 2.1 + 4t

z(t) = 3.1 - 2t

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is parallel to the vector 3i + 2j − k.

So the vector of this line is a multiple of this vector, so i will use 6i + 4j - 2k.

The line goes through the point (4, 2.1, 3.1).

So the parametric equations are:

x(t) = 4 + 6t

y(t) = 2.1 + 4t

z(t) = 3.1 - 2t

The vector equation is:

(4 + 6t, 2.1 + 4t, 3.1 - 2t)
