Answer:
156
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
Age (X) :
38
41
45
48
51
53
57
61
65
Pressure(Y) :
116
120
123
131
142
145
148
150
152
From the data, we could obtain a regression equation to mod the data Given using a linear regression calculator :
The regression equation obtained is :
y = 1.48769X + 60.46103
Using the model, the predicted blood pressure for a person aged 64 will be :
y = 1.48769(64) + 60.46103
y = 95.21216 + 60.46103
y = 155.67319
y = 156 (nearest whole number)
a constant of proportionality is a number you have to multiply x by to get y.
y=kx is the equation that expresses the proportionality of x and y
in this case, 10 video games cost $145
the question's basically asking what you have to multiply 10 by to get 145
y= 145; x=10
k= y/x = 145/10=14.5
the constant of proportionality is 14.5
10 weeks
Duane adds $5 every other week so that's 5 weeks out of 10. 5 x 5 = 25
Mick adds $2 every week so,
2 x 10 = 20
25 + 20 = 45
1.111.... so just right 1.2
I'm assuming you're referring to problem 6. You are asked to find the number of x intercepts or roots, which is another term for "zero". I prefer the term root or x intercept as "zero" seems misleading. Anyways, all we do is count the number of times the graph crosses the x axis. This happens 4 times as shown in the attached image below. I have marked these points in red. The graph can directly cross over the x axis, or it can touch the x axis and then bounce back. Either way, it is considered an x intercept.
<h3>Answer: there are 4 x intercepts (or 4 roots)</h3>
