Answer:
A) Yes; Week 10 is an outlier since it is the greatest data point.
Your money grows faster because the interest is added back into the principle and then the next time it compounds you get interest on the new principle amount. So for example, you deposit $100 in an account that gets 5% interest compounded semiannually. The first time it compounds you get $5 added to your account so your new balance is $105. The next time it compounds you get 5% on $105 so you get $5.25 added and so on. If this is only happening semi-annually that would be all you get for the year. But if it happens quarterly you would get would get deposits of $5.51 and $5.79 as well. If it compounds monthly or even daily your money would grow more and more. Hope this helps.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We want a line of best fit, which means we want to create a line that the data points will lie closest to.
One thing we can do is find the slope between the bottom-leftmost point and the top-rightmost point. This is because if we were to draw a line connecting these two, it will cut through the data quite well.
Those two points are (9, 15) and (16, 18), so the slope is change in y divided by the change in x:
(18 - 15) ÷ (16 - 9) = 3 ÷ 7 ≈ 0.4
Eliminate A and B.
Now we need to determine the y-intercept. This needs no calculations; simply look at the graph: there's no way a line cutting through the y-intercept point of (0, 18) will perfectly match the data points; instead it must be a y-intercept lower than 18. So, eliminate D.
The answer is C.
A'(1,-2)
B'(1,-3)
C'(-1,-3)
D'(-1,-2)
