Answer: Sample answer : a model is an estimate or approximation of a data set. In the real world, there are too many variables to know exactly what will happen. However, if a model is a good fit, then it can be used to make predictions about what will happen. With a useful model, a predicted value should be a good estimate of an observed value.

Basically meaning that no model can exactly be on point with whatever it is modeling. Two things cannot be EXACTLY identical to what they are referring to, but it is saying that some can get close enough to be useful as an example.

Quiz 1-2: Distance & Midpoint; Partitioning a Segment
nadya68 [22]

The distances between the given pairs of points are:

  • (-8, -2) and (6, -1);  d = 14.04
  • (-4, 5) and (4,0); d = 9.85
<h3>How to find the distance between two points?</h3>

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:

d = √( (x₁ - x₂)^2 - (y₁ - y₂)^2)

1) The first pair of points is (-8, -2) and (6, -1), using the above formula we can see that the distance is:

d = √( (-8 - 6)^2 - (-2 +1)^2) = 14.04

2) The second pair is (-4, 5) and (4,0), and using the distance formula, we get:

d = √( (-4 - 5)^2 - (4 - 0)^2) = 9.85

The table shows the number of candies packed by Machine J. The equation shows the number of candies packed by Machine K. In both
pav-90 [236]
Machine K y= 26x
y = 26 (11)
y = 286 candies in 11 minutes from Machine K

Machine J
90 / 3 = 30 candies a minute * 11 minutes = 330 candies

330 - 286 = 44

Machine J can pack 44 more candies than Machine K in 11 minutes.
