A large company is expanding its workforce and needs to hire some new administrative assistants. They found the relationship bet
ween starting salary and months of experience. Their results are in the table. Find the equation for the line of best fit for this data. its number 6 on the paper
1 answer:
The graph on #6 describes a scatterplot. Because years of experience is the input, this makes the starting salary our output. Finding the best fitting line in a scatterplot requires the line to follow a trajectory similar to that of the points. As a result, there will be outliers. Since I don't know what "the calculator" is meant by this problem, I have used a different program. I hope it works for you. Good luck.

Answer:
- car value: $4,953.84
- population: 446
- maybe not
Step-by-step explanation:
All of these exponential function problems use the same equation, but with different plug-in values. These can be easily accommodated by a spreadsheet or graphing calculator.
The general form of the value after t years is ...
(initial value)×(1 +annual growth rate)^(years)
The growth rate is positive for an increase, negative for a decrease.
a) Initial value: 22385; growth rate: -0.14; years: 10
value after 10 years: $22385×(1-0.14)^10 = $4953.84
__
b) initial value: 290; growth rate: 0.09; years: 5
population after 5 years: 290(1+.09)^5 = 446
__
c) initial value: $4000; growth rate: -0.10; years: 8
value after 8 years: $4000(1 -0.10)^8 = $1721.86
Selling the car for $1500 is selling it for <em>less than its estimated value</em>. That may not be a good decision.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The property value of the car is not the only consideration when evaluating the sale. Other costs related to the car may come into play, and there may be tax implications.
Answer:
StartRoot 2 squared + 6 squared EndRoot
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
A(4,3) and B(-2,1)
we know that
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
substitute the given values
therefore
StartRoot 2 squared + 6 squared EndRoot
