Answer:
A. Increase by 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a fitted multiple regression equation is

This is a multiple regression line with dependent variable y and independent variables x1, x2, x3 and x4
The coefficients of independent variables represent the slope.
In other words the coefficients represent the rate of change of y when xi is changed by 1 unit.
Given that x3 and x4 remain unchanged and x1 increases by 2 and x2 by 2 units
Since slope of x1 is 5, we find for one unit change in x1 we can have 5 units change in y
i.e. for 2 units change in x1, we expect 10 units change in Y
Similarly for 2 units change in x2, we expect -2(4) units change in Y
Put together we have
change in y
Since positive 2, there is an increase by 2
A. Increase by 2
F(x)=-4(-1)-5
f(x)=4-5
f(x)= -1
-1 is your answer
1/2 / 4
which can be rewritten as 1/2 * 1/4 (i bet you learnt how to divide fractions ... if you didnt then comment and ill tell you the rules for dividing)
1/2 * 1/4 = 1/8

- (a) It is <u>never</u> one-to-one
- (b) It is <u>never</u> onto
=========================================================
Explanation:
The graph of any constant function is a horizontal flat line. The output is the same regardless of whatever input you select. Recall that a one-to-one function must pass the horizontal line test. Horizontal lines themselves fail this test. So this is sufficient to show we don't have a one-to-one function here.
Put another way: Let f(x) be a constant function. Let's say its output is 5. So f(x) = 5 no matter what you pick for x. We can then show that f(a) = f(b) = 5 where a,b are different values. This criteria is enough to show that f(x) is not one-to-one. A one-to-one function must have f(a) = f(b) lead directly to a = b. We cannot have a,b as different values.
----------------------------
The term "onto" in math, specifically when it concerns functions, refers to the idea of the entire range being accessible. If the range is the set of all real numbers, then we consider the function be onto. There's a bit more nuance, but this is the general idea.
With constant functions, we can only reach one output value (in that example above, it was the output 5). We fall very short of the goal of reaching all real numbers in the range. Therefore, this constant function and any constant function can never be onto.
