The residual is the difference between the plotted point and the line of best fit.

We first need to know the point at x=5 for the line of best fit.
y1 = -(5) - 3 = -8

Now we need to find the difference between the line of best fit and the plotted point.
residual = 9 -(-8) = 9 + 8 = 17 or C

At a fishery, the largest catches in August were of black fin tuna sailfish blue marlin and king mackerel. The fishery calculate

aniked [119]

Answer:

Blue Marlin.

Step-by-step explanation:

In any data set, mean tells about the central tendency of the data. It actually tells the average of the data. On the other hand, standard deviation tells about the spread of the data. It actually tells to what extent the observational values revolve around the mean. Mean is not a good summary statistic of any data since it does not convey the complete information. In order to understand the spread of the data, standard deviation is calculated. The smaller the standard deviation, smaller the spread of the data. It has to be kept in mind that mean has nothing to do with the spread of the data. Smaller the standard deviation, smaller the spread. In this case, lowest standard deviation is of Blue Marlin, which is 1.97. Rest of the standard deviations are larger. This means that Blue Marlin has the smallest spread!!!

A glass is 1/4 full. Then 24cm of orange juice is poured in. The glass is now 2/5 full. What is the total volume of the glass?

Phantasy [73]

160cm3

2/5 - 1/4 = 8/20 - 5/20 = 3/20

(3/20)t = 24
t = 160
