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>
Answer: you could buy 12 magazines
Step-by-step explanation:
each magazine is $2
3X-8=-4X+6 7X-8=6 7X=14 X=14\7=2
0.9 x 10^4
Let’s break this down into steps.
So to start off with, you need to do 4.5/5 which = 0.9.
Now we can deal with the indices. 10^-3 / 10^-7 means we have to subtract them. Therefore, -3 - -7 = 4. Altogether, we have 0.9 x 10^4
The question states we should leave our answer in standard form.
So our answer is 0.9 x 10^4.
