Answer:31/40

Step-by-step explanation:

To add you have to have a common denominator. To get that you can multiply each fraction by one in different ways. 2/5 *8/8= 16/40 and 3/8* 5/5= 15/40 and then add those two to give you 31/40.

Two equations are given below: a – 3b = 22 a = b – 2 What is the solution to the set of equations in the form (a, b)? (–10, –8)

aliya0001 [1]

Hi Kristian

a - 3b = 22
a = b - 2

We need to solve a = b -2 for a
First, we need to substitute b - 2 for a in a - 3b = 22
a - 3b = 22
b - 2 - 3b = 22
-2b - 2 = 22
-2b = 22 + 2
-2b = 24
b = 24/-2
b = -12

Now substitute -12 for b in a = b - 2
a = b -2
a= -12 - 2
a= -14

Thus, the solution is a = -14 and b = -12

The correct option is the last one (-14,-12)

If you have questions about my answer, please let me know.

Good luck!

A linear regression is done on data the line of best fit is y= 1.25x-6.25. What is the residual for the point (1,1)?

Damm [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the predicted y value when x=1:

$\hat{y}=1.25x-6.25\\\hat{y}=1.25(1)-6.25\\\hat{y}=1.25-6.25\\\hat{y}=-5$

Find the residual:

$\text{Residual}=\text{Actual Value}-\text{Predicted Value}\\\text{Residual}=y-\hat{y}\\\text{Residual}=1-(-5)\\\text{Residual}=1+5\\\text{Residual}=6$

Because our residual is positive, this is an indicator that our predicted y value is too low.
