Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average cost = Total cost to produce / number of items produced

Fixed cost per year = $240,000

Variable cost = $3.50s

Where s = number of shoes produced

Total cost= fixed cost + variable cost

Total cost = $240,000 + $3.50s

When average cost = $7.50

Average cost = Total cost to produce / number of items produced

7.50 = $240,000 + $3.50s / s

Cross product

7.50s = $240,000 + $3.50s

Collect like terms

7.50s - 3.50s = 240,000

4s = 240,000

divide both sides by 4

s = 240,000 / 4

= 80,000

s = 80,000

The two key parts of regression equation involve the______ and the y'________
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

d. slope; intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

A regression equation is represented in the form :

y = mx + c (linear regression)

Where y = predicted variable

m = slope of regression line

x = independent variable

c = intercept (where the regression line crosses the y axis).

For a multiple regression equation where there are more than one independent, then we have multiple slopes

y = c + m1x1 + m2x2 +...mnxn

Hence, the slope. And intercept are the two key part of a regression equation which enables us to make prediction and correlation about the dependent and independent variables.

Please this is due at 11/00 pm help me please
Serga [27]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 54.

We see that each time, the number is being multiplied by 1.5.

54 times 1.5 = 81 * 1.5 = 108

54 times 2 = 108

<u>54 is the starting number, because when you multiply 54 by 1, you get 54 for y.</u>

The expression 0.75(1.06p) represents the total amount Jaxon paid for a jacket
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

0.75 could be a 25% discount. 1.06 could be a sales tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

If  p  is the original price, then  1.06p  could be the amount after a 6% tax is include.  Then multiplying by  0.75  could indicate a 25% discount (if you <u>don't</u> pay 25% = 0.25, then you <u>do</u> pay 75% = 0.75).

In case you're wondering about discounting <u>first</u> then charging tax, the result is the same because the multiplication can be done in either order.

0.75(1.06p) = 1.06(0.75p)
