Charlie used a regression calculator to generate the equation f(x) = –0.15x + 20.1 for the ordered pairs (2, 15), (4, 21), (6, 2

6), (8, 20), and (10, 14). Is a linear representation the best way to represent the data? If it is, explain why. If not, explain why and suggest a better alternative

Answer: The r<span>-value for the linear function related to the ordered pairs is very close to zero, so it is not a good representation of the data. A quadratic model would better represent the data because there is a turning point within the data set. The data increases then decreases, which is what the graph of a quadratic does. </span>

Answer:

The r-value for the linear function related to the ordered pairs is very close to zero, so it is not a good representation of the data. A quadratic model would better represent the data because there is a turning point within the data set. The data increases then decreases, which is what the graph of a quadratic does.

Susan is celebrating her birthday by going out to eat at five guy's for burgers. If the bill in $40 and she wants to leave a tip
damaskus [11]

Answer:

  $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan can easily figure the tip by the following procedure. 10% of the bill is the amount with the decimal point moved one place to the left, so is $4.00. 5% of the bill is half that, or $2.00.

15% of the bill is 10% + 5%, so is $4.00 +2.00 = $6.00. The tip will be $6.00.

Given points A (0,0), B (4,0), C (0,2), D (0,0), E (2,0), and F (0,1), which of the following proves that

Similar triangles may or may not have equal side lengths

Triangles ABC and DEF are similar by SSS theorem

<h3>How to determine the similarity statement</h3>

The coordinates of the two triangles are:

A (0,0), B (4,0), C (0,2), D (0,0), E (2,0), and F (0,1)

Calculate the lengths of both triangles using the following distance formula

d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}

For triangle ABC, we have:

AB = \sqrt{(0 -4)^2 + (0 -0)^2} = 4

BC = \sqrt{(4 -0)^2 + (0 -2)^2} = 2\sqrt 5

CA = \sqrt{(0 -0)^2 + (0 -2)^2} = 2

For triangle DEF, we have:

DE = \sqrt{(0 -2)^2 + (0 -0)^2} = 2

EF = \sqrt{(2 -0)^2 + (0 -1)^2} = \sqrt 5

FD = \sqrt{(0 -0)^2 + (1 -0)^2} = 1

Divide corresponding sides of the triangles to calculate the scale factor k

k = \frac{AB}{DE} = \frac{BC}{EF} = \frac{CA}{FD}

This gives

k = \frac{4}{2} = \frac{2\sqrt 5}{\sqrt 5} = \frac{2}{1}

Evaluate the quotients

k = 2 = 2 = 2

Since the quotients are equal, then the triangles are similar

Hence, triangles ABC and DEF are similar by SSS theorem

The center of the circle is (h,k) = (-2,-3)

The radius of the circle is r = 2

The standard form of equation of the circle is

{(x + 2)}^{2}  +  {(y + 3)}^{2}  = 4

<h3>How to find the center, radius and standrad form of the circle?</h3>

The general form of equation of the circle is

{(x - h)}^{2}  +  {(y - k)}^{2}  =  {r}^{2}

Here, (h,k) means centre of the circle.

r means radius of the circle.

given that coordinate points of centre of circle is (-2,-3).

Hence the (h,k) = (-2,-3)

<h3>How to find the radius of the circle?</h3>

Now to find the radius of the circle

The distance from a circle's centre to its circumference is its radius.

The distance from a circle's centre (-2,-3) to its circumference (0,-3) is its radius.

using the formula, distance between the two points to obtain radius.

d =  \sqrt{(x1 - x2) {}^{2}  +  {(y1 - y2)}^{2} }  \\ r =  \sqrt{ {( - 2 - 0)}^{2} +  {( - 3 - ( - 3))}^{2}  }  \\ r =  \sqrt{ {( - 2)}^{2} +  {( - 3 + 3)}^{2}  }  \\ r =  \sqrt{ {4}^{2} + 0 }  \\ r =  \sqrt{4}  \\ r = 2

<h3>How to find the standard form of equation of the circle?</h3>

(h,k) = (-2,-3)

r = 2

subtitue the (h,k) and r values to get the standard form of equation of the circle.

(x - h) {}^{2}  +  {(y - k)}^{2}  =  {r}^{2}

{(x - ( - 2))}^{2}  +  {(y - ( - 3))}^{2} =  {r}^{2}

{(x + 2)}^{2}  +  {(y + 3)}^{2}  = 4
