Answer:

d.) 81

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) would be 27 and 27x3 is 81.

81/3=27

27/3=9

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the recursive function, f(n+1) = one-half(n)

Thus, when n = 2,

f(3) = 9

If n = 1,

f(2) = 9×3

f(2) = 27

If n = 0,

f(1) = 27 ×3

f(1) = 81

For a least squares regression line, the sum of the residuals is __________.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

d. always zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

A least squares regression line is a standard technique in regression analysis used to make the vertical distance obtained from the data points running to the regression line to become very minimal or as small as possible.

For a least squares regression line, the sum of the residuals is always zero.

Basically, residuals are used to measure or determine whether or not the line of regression is a good fit or match for the data by subtracting the difference between them i.e the predicted y value and the actual y value, for the x value respectively.

What does x equal to? “?” = x Solve by using fractions and round to the nearest hundredth if necessary

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

3.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rotate the figure to the left 90 degrees clockwise so that it becomes same orientation as the figure to the right.

Since they are similar figures, their corresponding sides are proportional.

The 4 inch side of left figure corresponds to 16 in side of right side figure.

The "?" inch side of left figure corresponds to 14 in side of right side figure.

We can replace "?" with "x" and setup two ratios and equate them:

$\frac{4}{16}=\frac{x}{14}$

Now, we can cross multiply and solve for x:

$\frac{4}{16}=\frac{x}{14}\\16x=4*14\\16x=56\\x=\frac{56}{16}\\x=3.5$

Hence,

the unknown side marked "?" is equal to 3.5 inches
