An owner of a home in the Midwest installed solar panels to reduce heating costs. After installing the solar panels, he measured

the amount of natural gas used y y ( in cubic feet) to heat the home and outside temperature x x (in degree-days, where a day's degree-days are the number of degrees its average temperature falls below 65 oF o F ) over a 23-month period. He then computed the least-squares regression line for predicting y from x and found it to be: yˆ= y ^ = 85 + 13x. How much, on average, does gas used increase for each additional degree-day?

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the regression shows the average increase in response variable due to unit increase in explanatory variable. The regression equation of structure y=a+bx has slope=b.

The given regression equation y^=85+13x shows that the slope in the given equation is b=13. The response variable is amount of natural gas is used and explanatory variable is outside temperature in this case.

So, we can say that on increase of every unit of degree day the amount of gas used increase by 13 cubic feet.

The graph shows the functions f(x), p(x), and g(x):
Kruka [31]
Two functions have equal values where their graphs cross.

A) The solution to the pair of equations
.. y = p(x)
.. y = f(x)
will be where the graphs intersect, at (x, y) = (-3, -3).


B) We already know that (-3, -3) is one solution to y=f(x). The graph also appears to go through the point (0, 0).


C) p(x) = g(x) where their graphs cross, at x = -6. Both functions have the value 1 for that value of x.

Answer:

(-2,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x-1

3x-y = -1

We can use substitution

3x - (2x-1) = -1

Distribute the minus sign

3x -2x+1 = -1

x +1 =-1

Subtract 1 from each side

x+1-1 = -1-1

x=-2

Now we need to find y

y = 2x-1

y = 2(-2) -1

y = -4-1

y = -5

(-2,-5)

What appears to be the range of the part of the exponential function graphed on the grid?
Natali [406]

The domain of a function is the set of x values for which it is defined. The range of the given graph will be -2≤x<7.

<h3>What is the domain and range of a function?</h3>

The domain of a function is the set of x values for which it is defined, whereas the range is the set of y values for which it is defined.

As it can be seen that the value on the y-axis is defined for every value of x between -2 to 7, also the value of x  is also defined for x=-2.

Hence, the range of the given graph will be -2≤x<7.
