so, let's first change the bounds from 1 to 9, so we'll be dropping the indices by 1, in order to do the variable "n".
however, let's use a variable hmmm say "k", where "k" is the value of "n" beginning at 1, thus
k = n - 1.
however, if k = n - 1, then
k + 1 = n. So let's use those fellows then,
Answer:
Company C
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide the amount of money it all costs to the number of plushies they are selling it for.
A: 34.08/12 = $2.84 each
B: 42.90/15 = $2.86 each
C: 50.58/18 = $2.81 each
So C has the least amount of money spent for a greater amount of plushies so C would be the Best Buy.
Answer: 1) The best estimate for the average cost of tuition at a 4-year institution starting in 2020 =$ 31524.31
2) The slope of regression line b=937.97 represents the rate of change of average annual cost of tuition at 4-year institutions (y) from 2003 to 2010(x). Here,average annual cost of tuition at 4-year institutions is dependent on school years .
Step-by-step explanation:
1) For the given situation we need to find linear regression equation Y=a+bX for the given situation.
Let x be the number of years starting with 2003 to 2010.
i.e. n=8
and y be the average annual cost of tuition at 4-year institutions from 2003 to 2010.
With reference to table we get

By using above values find a and b for Y=a+bX, where b is the slope of regression line.

and

∴ To find average cost of tuition at a 4-year institution starting in 2020.(as n becomes 18 for year 2020 if starts from 2003 ⇒X=18)
So, Y= 14640.85 + 937.97×18 = 31524.31
∴The best estimate for the average cost of tuition at a 4-year institution starting in 2020 = $31524.31
Answer:
Membership decreased by an average of 6,600 people per year from Year 3 to Year 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change from Year 3 to Year 5 will be given by the slope of the line joining the points;
(3, 96.8) and (5, 83.6)
The slope of a line given two points is calculated as;
( change in y)/( change in x)
In this case y is the number of members for a given year x.
average rate of change = (83.6-96.8)/(5-3)
= -6.6
Since the number of members is given in thousands, we have;
-6,600
The negative sign implies a decrease in the number of members. Therefore, membership decreased by an average of 6,600 people per year from Year 3 to Year 5
