The correct answer for this question is that the unit rate is 5:1. We
can work this out by simplifying down the 2 commercials to every 10
songs ration, so that 10:2 becomes 5:1. We can work this out by halving
the original ratio to simplify it.
question 3: -2
question 4: 0
Ordered pairs in a graph go in the sequence of (x, y)
Answer:
2.65
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each payout by its probability, then add those products.
See the attached image.
The first column has the payouts. The second column has the probabilities. The third column has the results of multiplying a payout by its probability.
The sum of the entries in the third column is 2.65
Answer:
y = -2.8x +69.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2-point form of the equation of a line can be used to find the equation of the line through points (3, 61) and (13, 33). The general form of it is ...
y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)·(x -x1) +y1
For the given points, this is ...
y = (33 -61)/(13 -3)·(x -3) +61
y = -28/10(x -3) +61
y = -2.8x +69.4 . . . . . the equation of the line through the given points

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
A "line of best fit" is one that minimizes some measure of deviation from the line. Usually, what is minimized is the square of the deviations. Choosing two points to draw the line through may be convenient, but does not necessarily result in a line of best fit.
