A set of data points has a line of best fit of y = –0.2x + 1.9. What is the residual for the point (5, 1)?

1 answer:

3 0

A. 0.1
The residual is the difference between the observed value and the predicted value for a data point. You obtain it by subtracting the predicted value from the observed value. So the predicted value is: y = -0.2x + 1.9 y = -0.2*5 + 1.9 y = -1 + 1.9 y = 0.9 Therefore the residual is: r = 1 - 0.9 r = 0.1 And the value of 0.1 matches option "A".

For which function is f(x) equal to f^1(x) ( answer choices in picture )

Sonja [21]

Answer:

C. $f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the inverse of each of the given options.

Option A:

$f(x)=\frac{x+6}{x-6}\\y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+6}{y-6}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-6)=y+6\\xy-6x=y+6\\xy-y=6x+6\\y=\frac{6x+6}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{6x+6}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

So, option A is incorrect.

Option B:

$f(x)=\frac{x+2}{x-2}\\y=\frac{x+2}{x-2}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+2}{y-2}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-2)=y+2\\xy-2x=y+2\\xy-y=2x+2\\y=\frac{2x+2}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{2x+2}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+2}{x-2}$

So, option B is incorrect.

Option C:

$f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}\\y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+1}{y-1}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-1)=y+1\\xy-x=y+1\\xy-y=x+1\\y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}\ equals\ y=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$

So, option C is correct.

Option D:

$f(x)=\frac{x+5}{x-5}\\y=\frac{x+5}{x-5}$

To find $f^{-1}(x)$ , replace 'x' with 'y' and 'y' with 'x'. This gives,

$x=\frac{y+5}{y-5}$

Rewrite in terms of 'y'. This gives,

$x(y-5)=y+5\\xy-5x=y+5\\xy-y=5x+5\\y=\frac{5x+5}{x-1}$

The given function $y=\frac{5x+5}{x-1}\ne y=\frac{x+6}{x-6}$

So, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, only option C is correct.

X + 5y - 10 = 0 x = 2y - 8

ipn [44]

So since we know what x is, we can substitute it into the original equation for x like so to solve for y...

(2y - 8) + 5y - 10 = 0
2y - 8 + 5y = 10
2y + 5y = 18
7y = 18
y = 18/7 (or about 2.57)

So now we know what x is, we can sub it into the below equation to solve for x...

x = 2(18/7) - 8
x = 36/14 - 8 (or about -5.43)
