Answer:
y = 3.02x^3 -5.36x^2 +5.68x +8.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Your graphing calculator (or other regression tool) can solve this about as quickly as you can enter the numbers. If you have a number of regression formulas to work out, it is a good idea to become familiar with at least one tool for doing so.

If you're trying to do this by hand, the x- and y-values give you 4 equations in the 4 unknown coefficients.
a·1^3 +b·1^2 +c·1 +d = 12
a·3^3 +b·3^2 +c·3 +d = 59
a·6^3 +b·6^2 +c·6 +d = 502
a·8^3 +b·8^2 +c·8 +d = 1257
Solving this by elimination, substitution, or matrix methods is tedious, but not impossible. Calculators and web sites can help. The solutions are a = 317/105, b = -75/14, c = 1193/210, d = 303/35. Approximations to these values are shown above.
Answer:
Last answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
What I do is divide the terms by the previous terms, and if they all equal 1.5, that is your answer.
Answer:
The perimeter of the triangle ABC is 17 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the Isosceles triangle ABC.
The sides CA and CB are equal with measures, 5 cm.
The base angles are assumed to be <em>x</em>° each. Hence, the angle ACB is 2<em>x</em>°.
The altitude CP divides the base AB into two equal halves and the angle ACB is also cut into halves.
Consider the right angled triangle ACP.
The sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180°.
Determine the value of <em>x</em> as follows:
<em>x</em>° + <em>x</em>° + 90° = 180°
2<em>x</em>° = 90°
<em>x</em>° = 45°
Compute the length of side AP as follows:
Then the length of side AB is:
AB = AP + PB
= 3.5 + 3.5
= 7 cm
The perimeter of triangle ABC is:
Perimeter = AB + CA + CB
= 7 + 5 + 5
= 17
Thus, the perimeter of the triangle ABC is 17 cm.
The range of the data is 12
