<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

When there is a linear relationship is observed between the variables, we use  linear regression predict the relationship between them.

Also, we predict the values for dependent variable by modelling a linear model that best fits the data by drawing a line Y=a+bX, where X is the explanatory variable and Y is the dependent variable.

In other words: The line of best fit is a line through a scatter plot of data points that best describes the relationship between them.

That's why the  regression line referred to as the line of best fit.

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!!
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

A)  B is greater

B) when C = 21, A = 5 and B = 15

C) A must be 0, 5, or 12 for C to be greater than B

Step-by-step explanation:

A)  when a = -3, c = -20 and b = 4(-3)-5 so B = -17

B) when c = 21, a = 5 and b = 4(5)-5 so B = 15

C) C is greater than B when a = 0, 5, and 12

when a = 0, b = 4(0)-5 or -5

when a = 5, b = 4(5)-5 or 15

when a = 12, b = 4(12)-5 or 43

The area of the region that is not shaded in the diagram is determined through the following solution:

<span>A = <span>(1 − (<span><span>60°/</span><span>360°</span></span>)*</span>π) * (10 ft ) ^<span>2</span></span> <span>A = <span>56*</span>π*100 [<span>ft2</span>]</span> <span><span>A = <span>250/3 </span>π [<span>ft2</span>]
A = 262 [ft2]</span></span>
