The next number is 38. The pattern is 7, 16, 8, 27, 9; if you look at the first 4 numbers, you notice that it counts to 7, 8, 9. Then you have 16 and 27, if the pattern continues; the next number is 38.
U can easily put this through a calculator, but it’s 24 :)
Linear regression line y=2.1x+130 predicts sales based on the money spent on advertising.
Linear regression represents the relationship between two variables. the value of y depends on the value of x.
x represents the dollars spent in advertising and y represents the company sales in dollars.
We need to find out sales y when $150 spends on advertising.
Plug in 150 for x and find out y
y = 2.1 x + 130
y = 2.1 (150) + 130
y= 445
The company expects $445 in sales
