If you have learned how to find the line of best fit manually, then you can do it that way. Perhaps you may want to just find a line that can connect at least two of the points and I believe that that line will be able to represent the other points because, in general, the points are pretty close to one another.
If you don't want to do it manually and have a graphing calculator (which I recommend) then you can use that to find the line of best fit (and if you want then you can see how precise your points are with your r^2 value). Or there is a website (http://illuminations.nctm.org/Activity.aspx?id=4186), which you can use to help you to find the equation of that particular line.
Once you have that done, then you can substitute 2009 for the x value in the equation and then see what y value the equation produces. That will then be your answer :)
First of all 1+2=3 which leads to 6:3x=1 3x=6:1 3x=6 X=2
Answer:
31.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem
a² + b² = c²
Plug in the knowns
a² + 23² = 39²
Subtract 23² from both sides
a² = 39² - 23²
a² = 1521 - 529
a² = 992
Take the square root of both sides
a = 31.496031496
Rounded
a = 31.5 ft
The distance formula is:
D = sqrt((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)
D= sqrt ((6-2)^2 + (8-1)^2)
D = sqrt(4^2 + 7^2)
D = sqrt( 16 + 49)
D = sqrt(65)
D = 8.06
Rounded to the beat tenth = 8.1 units.
The answer is C. 8.1 units
The range of the function y = x2 is all real numbers, y, such that y ≥ 0.
