Not sure but you can figure it out.
Answer:
Option B
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the derivative of the residual function, then applying the normal equation:
[a; b] = (X'*X)^(X'*y)
with
X = [1 1; 2 1; 3 1; 4 1; 5 1]
X' is transpose of X
y = [11; 8; 4; 1; 0]
[a; b] = [-2.9 13.5]
Perpendicular means the slopes are opposite inverse of each other
If line a is slope 2, the perpendicular line to Line a would have a slope - 1/2
Difference in y over difference in x gives slope. If they are opposite inverse values the lines are perpendicular. ( in this case the answer is true.)
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = AB + BC
Since we know what each variable equals, we can write out the equation as shown:
47 = 5x + 3x - 1
Combining like terms:
47 = 8x - 1
Add 1 on both sides:
48 = 8x
Divide 8 on both sides:
X = 6
Now that we know what X equals, we can solve BC.
BC = 3(6) - 1
BC = 18 - 1
BC = 17
Therefore BC = 17.
