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:
Step-by-step explanation:
First factor the second binomial
38^9 - 38^8 = 38^9 (38 - 1 ) = 38^9(37)
So there's your 37. This whole expression is divisible by 37
Now do the first binomial
36^5 - (36^4)*6
36^4(36 - 6)
36^4(30) and there's your thirty.
That first term is going to cause a bit of trouble showing that 36^4 * 6 = 6^9
6(36^4) = 6(6^2)^4 = 6^1 * 6^8 = 6^9
So this factors into 30*(36^4)*37*38^9
Answer:
NOT PROPORTIONAL
Step-by-step explanation:
The given two fractions are: 
and 
.
Proportional fractions are those which have the same value when to reduced to the simplest form.
Consider two fractions 
and 
.
We say they are proportional if 
.
Or, if 
then we can say the fractions are proportional.
Here the fractions are: and .
LHS: 5 X 10 = 50.
RHS: 8 X 8 = 64.
Clearly they are not equal. So, we can say these two fractions are not proportional.
B is the answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
