Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, you see the line intersects the y-axis at y = 2, so the y-intercept is b = 2.

Now we need the slope. We need to find the number of vertical and horizontal units to go from one point to the other. Starting at point (-1, 5), go down 6 units and then go right 2 units. The change in y is -6. The change in x is 2. slope = m = (change in y)/(change in x) = -6/2 = -3.

m = -3; b = 2

y = mx + b

y = -3x + 2

Evaluate and simplify the following complex fraction.:6/7 ÷ 3/11

inna [77]

Answer:

3 7/50

Step-by-step explanation:

so you need them to become common denominators

a common multiple they both have would be is 77

6/7 becomes 66/77 and 3/11 becomes 21/77

now we divide

keep the 66/77 as is and flip 21/77 (keep, change, flip)

so now our equation looks like this: 66/77 x 77/21

and your answer is 3.14

but as a fraction it is 157/50 and to simplified it would be 3 7/50 (mixed fraction)

Plz tell me where to mark and the answers....

damaskus [11]

Well x=1 always unless it tells you other wise so 1+0.5 would equal 1.5 and so after that you keep adding so 1.5 + 0.5 equal 2 so you keep taking the previous answer and adding 0.5 to it

The fitted regression is Sales = 832 − 28.2 Price. (a-1) If Price = 1, what is the prediction for Sales? (Round your answer to 1

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Part (a-1): The prediction for Sales is 803.8.

Part (a-2): The correct option is: An increase in price decreases sales.

Part (B): The prediction for sales is 211.66

Part (C): The intercept is meaningful as sales will be maximized when price is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided regression:

Sales = 832 − 28.2 Price

(a-1) If Price = 1, what is the prediction for Sales?

Substitute Price = 1 in above regression.

Sales = 832 − 28.2 (1) = 803.8

Hence, the prediction for Sales is 803.8.

Sales (a-2) Choose the correct statement.

Here we can observe that as we increase the price, sales decrease.

Thus, the correct option is: An increase in price decreases sales.

(b) If Price = 22, what is the prediction for Sales?

Substitute Price = 22 in above regression.

Sales = 832 − 28.2 (22)

Sales = 832 − 620.4

Sales = 211.66

Hence, the prediction for sales is 211.66

Sales (c) Choose the right option.

As we increase the price, sales decrease that means the sales will be maximum if the price is 0.

The intercept is meaningful as sales will be maximized when price is zero.
