The definition of point-slope form is the equation of a straight line in the form y − y1 = m(x − x1) where m is the slope of the line and (x1, y1) are the coordinates of a given point on the line

The equation of a straight like in the from y – y1 =m(x-x1) where m is the slope of the like and (x1 , y1) are the coordinates of a given point on the line — compare slope intercept form.

An automobile dealer wants to see if there is a relationship between monthly sales and the interest rate. A random sample of 4 m

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a) $y=-6.254 x +75.064$

b) r =-0.932

The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by $r^2$ and on this case $-0.932^2 =0.8687$ , so then the % of variation explained by the linear model is 86.87%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following dataset:

Monthly Sales (Y) Interest Rate (X)

22 9.2

20 7.6

10 10.4

45 5.3

Part a

And we want a linear model on this way y=mx+b, where m represent the slope and b the intercept. In order to find the slope we have this formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=278.65-\frac{32.5^2}{4}=14.5875$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i){n}}=696.9-\frac{32.5*97}{4}=-91.225$

And the slope would be:

$m=\frac{-91.225}{14.5875}=-6.254$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{32.5}{4}=8.125$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{97}{4}=24.25$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=24.25-(-6.254*8.125)=75.064$

So the line would be given by:

$y=-6.254 x +75.064$

Part b

For this case we need to calculate the correlation coefficient given by:

$r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}$

$r=\frac{4(696.9)-(32.5)(97)}{\sqrt{[4(278.65) -(32.5)^2][4(3009) -(97)^2]}}=-0.937$

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =-0.932

The % of variation is given by the determination coefficient given by $r^2$ and on this case $-0.932^2 =0.8687$ , so then the % of variation explained by the linear model is 86.87%.

How would you explain to someone the rules of a horizontal translation where we are subtracting from the inputs(within the paren

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Ok, we know that we can write a horizontal translation as:

y' = f(x - A)

where if A is positive, this moves the graph of f(x) A units to the right.

Why is this?

Ok, let's compare:

y = f(x)

and

y' = f(x - A)

in y, when x = 0 we have f(0).

While to have this same point in y', we need to evaluate in x = A.

f(A - A) = f(0).

Then the value f(0) is now at x = A, this means that the point moved A units to the right.

And you can do this for all the values, so you will find that the entire graph of f(x) has ben moved A units to the right.
