Units must be consistent. If the unit for p is dollars, the unit for i is dollars and the unit for t is years, what must the uni
umka2103 [35]

Assuming you're concerned with interest rate problems, r is generally involved in something like the formula ...

... i = prt

So, r will have the units of ...

... r = i/(pt) = (dollars)/(dollars·year) = 1/year

That is, r is <em>(some fraction) per year</em>.

_____

Often, the fraction is expressed as a percentage. The fraction will be unitless (as percentages are), leaving the units of r as year⁻¹.

3.114

Step-by-step explanation:

Given slope of the line is 1.581,

Mean of the x-coordinate is 5.923,

Mean of the y-coordinate is 12.478

Equation of the line formula is  

y = mx + c

12.478 = 1.581 × 5.923 + c

⇒ 12.478 = 9.364263 + c

⇒ c = 12.478 – 9.364263  

⇒ c = 3.113737

⇒ c = 3.114 (Round off to three decimal places)

Hence, y-intercepts of the line to three decimal places is 3.114.
