Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the scatter plot for x and y and the possible regression line closer to all the points.

We have to find the equation of the line

We can find two points on the line from the graph and find the equation using two point formula

We find y intercept is 6 i.e. one point (0,6)

Let us take any other point say for

$x=10$ , y = 21

Hence two points are (0,6) and (10,21)

Using two point formula we get

$\frac{x-0}{10-0} =\frac{y-6}{21-6} \\15x=10(y-6)\\1.5x=y-6\\y=1,5x+6$

Hence option A is right

Find the point(s) of intersection between the quadratic function y = x + 4x + 4 and the linear function y = 2x+4.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

(0, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the intersection of two lines, we want to find the value when they equal each other. To do this, we want to set the equations equal to each other.

First, let's simplify y = x + 4x + 4 by combining the x's.

y = 5x + 4

Now let's set the equations equal to each other. Since they both equal y, we can set the opposite sides equal to each other.

5x + 4 = 2x + 4

Now you want to combine the terms.

[subtract 4] 5x = 2x

[subtract 2x] 3x = 0

Now you want to isolate the x.

[divide by 3] x = 0

Now we want to find y by plugging x = 0 back into the equations.

y = 5(0) + 4

[multiply] y = 0 + 4

[add] y = 4

Check this with the other equation.

y = 2(0) + 4

[multiply] y = 0 + 4

[add] y = 4

Your answer is correct!

(0, 4)
