Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
where m is the slope and ( x1,y1) is a point on the line
y-12 = 3(x-12)
If we want it in slope intercept form
Distribute
y-12 = 3x-36
Add 12 to each side
y-12+12 = 3x-36+12
y = 3x-24
I’m sorry I’m kinda confused on what you mean could you better say in the comments and I’ll also answer in there (:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I really hope you know how to use your calculator to find regression equations, because in this forum it is impossible to teach you how to do that. I ran the data through my calculator and got the exponential equation as
which means at 4 hours, we started with 1963 bacteria and it is growing at a rate of 114% each hour. Since we started out with an x value of 0, and that value represents the number of bacteria after 4 hours, then time 0 is 4 hours, which means that time 12 is 16 hours. We replace the x in the equation with a 12 and do the math:
which gives us, in the end,
y = 9460
Im pretty sure it would be 10??? if you are putting it as a subtraction problem if not i would try wording it more clearly
