To investigate the relationship between amount of sales y (in thousands of dollars) and the amount x (in hundreds of dollars) sp

ent on advertising, a marketing researcher chooses eight cities of approximately equal populations and spends differing amounts on advertising in each city. The sales y and the amount x spent on advertising are recorded for each city. From the data the least squares prediction line is: = 24.45 + 2.38x.
Interpret the slope of the least squares line.
(A) For each additional hundred dollars spent on advertising, sales are predicted to increase by $2,380.
(B) If no money is spent on advertising, sales are predicted to be $24.45.
(C) For each additional hundred dollars spent on advertising, sales are predicted to increase by $24,452.
(D) For each additional $1000 dollars in sales, the amount spent on advertising is predicted to increase by $238.

Answer:

(A) For each additional hundred dollars spent on advertising, sales are predicted to increase by $2,380.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression isa statistical equation, denoting relationship between independent (causal) variable(s) & dependent (effected) variable.

y = a <u>+</u> bx

where y = dependent variable, x = dependent variable, a (intercept) = autonomous value of y, b (slope) = change in y due to change in x

Regression equation of independent variable (x) as advertising expenditure & dependent variable (y) sales : y = 24.45 + 2.38x

Sales are in thousands of dollars, advertising expenditure is in hundreds of dollars. So, the interpretations are :

  • Intercept interpretation : When there is zero advertising expenditure, sales are 24.45 thousands i.e $24450
  • Slope Interpretation :<u> When advertisement expenditure change (rise) by 1 hundred, sales change (rise) by 2.38 thousand i.e</u><u> </u><u>$2380</u>

This graph represents the relationship between the x and y.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Therefore, x is 1 and 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you plot both equations on the same graph, you will get something like this, shown in the graph.

Then, you have to find the x solutions where they intersect.

So, both equations intersect at x = 1 and 2.

{(-9,3) (5,-6) (3,-1), (-6,5), ?}Which ordered pair can replace the missing value and make the set if ordered pairs NOT a functi
Nookie1986 [14]
\text{Slope}=\frac{-1--6}{3-5}=\frac{5}{-2}\begin{gathered} y-y_1=\frac{5}{-2}(x-x_1) \\  \\ y--6=\frac{5}{-2}(x-5) \\  \\ -2(y+6)=5(x-5) \\ -2y-12=5x-25 \\ 5x+2y=25-12 \\ 5x+2y=13 \end{gathered}

The missing values are (-6, -9) ( The last option)

Explanation:

x= - 6 has already produced the value of y as 5, the only pair in the given option the make the given ordered pairs NOT to be a function is (-6, -9) since it will give the value of y to be - 9.

Graph the numbers that are solutions to both inequalities.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

p ∈ [5 , 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

p + 6 ≥ 11

⇒ p ≥ 11 - 6

⇒ p ≥ 5

⇒ p ∈ [5 , +∞)

3p < 18

⇒ p < 18/3

⇒ p < 6

⇒ p ∈ (-∞ , 6)

Then

p the solution to both equations verify:

p ∈ (-∞ , 6) ∩ [5 , +∞)

Conclusion :

p ∈ [5 , 6)
