The data below shows the points scored and minutes played by six basketball players during the 2004-2005 season. The least squar
k0ka [10]

We assume data and prediction as question is incomplete

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Least squares regression line equations are used to model the relationship that exists between two variables, dependent and independent variables. The equation has the form y=a+bx where y is the dependent variable and x is independent variable, a is a constant and is the y intercept and b is the slope of the line. This relationship is then used to predict future outcomes.

Given that data for 2004-2005 for the basketball players are :

James- 20 points

John- 30 points

Chris- 50 points

Dave-15 points

Donaldson- 32 points

Richard -40 points

We predict the scores/points for James (for example) for the following year using the equation of the regression line y=0.79x+1544

We substitute his points x=20 I'm the equation:

Y=0.79*20+1544

=1599.8

The predicted value is 1599.8

13 + 2v - 8 + 6 > -7 - v please simplify and explain IN ONLY NUMBERS NO WORDS
insens350 [35]

Answer:

v > - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

13 + 2v - 8 + 6 > -7 - v (calculate the sum of difference)

= 11 + 2v>-7-v (move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign and move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign)

= 2v + v > - 7 - 11 (collect like items and calculate the difference)

= 3v>-18 (divide both sides of the inequality by 3)

=v > - 6

*in parentheses is written what to do to get the next number*

Answer:

1. x = 39.67

2. x = 15

3. x = 49.29

4. x = -12.8

5. x = 96

6. x = 42

7. x = 36

8. x = 0

9. x = 78

Step-by-step explanation:

Just remember to always isolate the unknown. Here are the solutions to your problem. I will explain each step for the first for you to give you an idea how the others were worked out.

1. \dfrac{3x}{7}-2 = 15  

Add 2 to both sides to get rid of -2 on the left side.

\dfrac{3x}{7}-2+(2)=15+(2)///dfrac{3x}{7}=17

Multiply both sides by 7 to get rid of 7 on the left side.

\dfrac{3x}{7}\times 7 = 17\times 7\\\\3x = 119

Divide both sides by 3 to get rid of 3 on the left side.

\dfrac{3x}{3} = \dfrac{119}{3}\\\\x = 39.67

You could also transpose everything by the x to the other side of the equation. Just remember that whatever OPERATION used on the original side, must be opposite on the other side. I'll use the second problem to show this.

\dfrac{2x}{5}+1=7

Transpose  1 on the left to the right. It is addition on the left, then it would be subtraction on the other side.

\dfrac{2x}{5}+1=7\\\\\dfrac{2x}{5}=7-1\\\\\dfrac{2x}{5}=6

Transpose 5 from the left side to the right. It is division on the left, then it would be multiplication on the right.

\dfrac{2x}{5}=6\\\\2x=6\times 5\\\\2x=30

Transpose 2 from the left side to the right. It is multiplication on the left, then it would be division on the right.

2x=30\\\\x=\dfrac{30}{2}\\\\x=15

Let's move on with the rest now.

3.

\dfrac{7x}{15}-1=22\\\\\dfrac{7x}{15}=22+1\\\\\dfrac{7x}{15}=23\\\\7x=23\times15\\\\7x=345\\\\x=\dfrac{345}{7}\\\\x=49.29

4.

\dfrac{5x}{8}+10=2\\\\\dfrac{5x}{8}=2-10\\\\\dfrac{5x}{8}=-8\\\\5x=-8\times8\\\\5x=-64\\\\x=\dfrac{-64}{5}\\\\x=-12.8

5.

\dfrac{x}{6}+4=20\\\\\dfrac{x}{6}=20-4\\\\\dfrac{x}{6}=16\\\\x=16\times6\\\\x=96

6.

\dfrac{x}{3}-4=10\\\\\dfrac{x}{3}=10+4\\\\\dfrac{x}{3}=14\\\\x=3\times14\\\\x=42

7.

\dfrac{x}{6}+2=8\\\\\dfrac{x}{6}=8-2\\\\\dfrac{x}{6}=6\\\\x=6\times6\\\\x=36

8.

\dfrac{x}{9}+8=8\\\\\dfrac{x}{9}=8-8\\\\\dfrac{x}{9}=0\\\\x=0\times9\\\\x=0

9.

\dfrac{x}{6}+7=20\\\\\dfrac{x}{6}=20-7\\\\\dfrac{x}{6}=13\\\\x=13\times6\\\\x=78
