3,437,000 people

2,254,000 times .035 = 78890 new people per year
78890 times 15 years= 1183350 new people in 15 years
2254000+1183350= 3437350 total people in 2015
rounded to the nearest 1000= 3,437,000

What is the equation of the line of the best fit for the following data? Round to the slope and y-intercept of the line to three
BigorU [14]

Answer:

D. y=-0.927x+13.634

Step-by-step explanation:

We graph the points on the graph. The graph is attached.

Let us take two points (1, 14) and (15, 1), and calculate the slope mbetween them <em>(we choose these points because the line passing through them will be the best fit for all points) </em>

m=\frac{14-1}{1-15} =\frac{13}{-14} =-0.9286

Thus we have the equation

y=-0.9286x+b

Let us now calculate b from the point (1,14)

14=-0.9286(1)+b

b=14.9286

So the equation we get is

y=-0.9286x+14.9286

Let us now turn to the choices given and see which choice is closest to our equation: we see that choice D. y=-0.927x+13.634 is the closest one, so we pick it.

Connor and Angie helped take attendance during their schools practice fire drill if the actual count was between 77 and 89 inclu
wel

Answer:

The most absolute error is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for absolute error is given by the following relation;

Absolute error, Δx = Value measured, x₀ - Exact (actual) value, x

Δx = x₀ - x

Since the actual count is between 77 and 89, the maximum absolute error will be where the actual value = 77 and the measured value = 89 and vice versa, giving an absolute error of 89 -77 = 12.

The most absolute error = 12.

Answer:

  • The sequence of transformations that maps triangle XYZ onto triangle X"Y"Z" is <u>translation 5 units to the left, followed by translation 1 unit down, and relfection accross the x-axis</u>.

Explanation:

By inspection (watching the figure), you can tell that to transform the triangle XY onto triangle X"Y"Z", you must slide the former 5 units to the left, 1 unit down, and, finally, reflect it across the x-axys.

You can check that analitically

Departing from the triangle: XYZ

  • <u>Translation 5 units to the left</u>: (x,y) → (x - 5, y)

  • Vertex X: (-6,2) → (-6 - 5, 2) = (-11,2)
  • Vertex Y: (-4, 7) → (-4 - 5, 7) = (-9,7)
  • Vertex Z: (-2, 2) → (-2 -5, 2) = (-7, 2)

  • <u>Translation 1 unit down</u>: (x,y) → (x, y-1)

  • (-11,2) → (-11, 2 - 1) = (-11, 1)
  • (-9,7) → (-9, 7 - 1) = (-9, 6)
  • (-7, 2) → (-7, 2 - 1) = (-7, 1)

  • <u>Reflextion accross the x-axis</u>: (x,y) → (x, -y)

  • (-11, 1) → (-11, -1), which are the coordinates of vertex X"
  • (-9, 6) → (-9, -6), which are the coordinates of vertex Y""
  • (-7, 1) → (-7, -1), which are the coordinates of vertex Z"

Thus, in conclusion, it is proved that the sequence of transformations that maps triangle XYZ onto triangle X"Y"Z" is translation 5 units to the left, followed by translation 1 unit down, and relfection accross the x-axis.
