Answer:

The equation of trend line is y = 0.500000x + 16.857143.

The linear trend forecast for period 8 is about 20.86.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data table is

Period            Sales

1                      19

2                     18

3                     15

4                     20

5                     18

6                     22

7                     20

We need to find the linear trend forecast for period 8.

The general form of linear regression is

y=a+bx             .... (1)

where, a is y-intercept and b is slope.

b=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^nx_iy_i-n\overline{x}\overline{y}}{\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^2-n\overline{x}^2}

a=\overline{y}-b\overline{x}

Using the graphing calculator we get

a=16.857143

b=0.500000

Substitute these values in equation (1).

y = 0.500000x + 16.857143

The equation of trend line is y = 0.500000x + 16.857143.

Substitute x=8 to find the linear trend forecast for period 8.

y = 0.500000(8) + 16.857143

y =20.857143

y \approx 20.86

Therefore the linear trend forecast for period 8 is about 20.86.

Find three consecutive integers whose sum is -21. 2. find three consecutive odd integers whose sum is 144. 3. the sum of three c
fenix001 [56]
Easy way
-21÷3=-7 which is the exact center so
-6, -7, -8

Equation
x + (x+1) + (x+2) = -21
3x + 3 = -21
3x=-24
x=-8
x+1=-7
x+2=-6

2. Consecutive Odd Integers
X, X+2, X+4

X + (X+2) + (X+4) = 144
3X+6=144
3X=144-6=138
X = 138/3 = 46 .....There are no 3 odd Integers that can equal an even integer

3. 3 consecutive even number x, x+2, x+4

X + (X+2) + (X+4) = 48
3X+6=48
3X=48-6=42
X=42/3=14
