Answer:

A) m = 0.062

B) 202.87 thousand dollars

C) Original price = 116.07 thousand dollars. $6000 is called the error term.                                            

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Price = 47.87+0.062(size)

The above equation is regression equation where price is in thousand dollars and size in square feet.

Let p be the prize and s be the size.

p(s) = 47.87 + 0.062s

Comparing it to linear equation, we have,

y= mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

m = 0.062

c = 47.87

A) slope of the line

The slope of line tells the rate of change. Thus, it tells the change in price if the size of house is increased by 1 square feet.

The price of house increases by 0.062 thousand dollars if the size of house is increased by 1 square feet.

B) Price of house

We are given s = 2500. Putting this value in the equation.

p(2500) = 47.87 + 0.062(2500) =202.87

Thus, the price of a 2500 square feet house is 202.87 thousand dollars.

C) We are given s = 1100

Putting the value in the equation:

p(1100) = 47.87 + 0.062(1100) =116.07

Original price = 116.07 thousand dollars

Asking price =

116.07 - 6 = 110.07

The buyer is asking for 110.07 thousand dollars.

$6000 is called the error term.

Answer any of the following:
Volgvan
<span>1. Solve the system by substitution -2x+y=-11, 3x-4y=11. 
</span>-2x+y=-11<span>
y = 2x-11

</span><span>3x-4y=11
</span>3x-4(2x-11)=11
3x -8x + 44 = 11
-5x = -33
<span>x =33/5
y = 11/5

</span><span>2. Solve the system using elimination- 2x+6y=-12, 5x-5y=10. 
</span><span>(-2x+6y=-12)5
</span>-10x + 30y = -60

<span>(5x-5y=10)2
</span>10x - 10y = 20

Adding the two equations,
<span>-10x + 30y = -60
</span><span>10x - 10y = 20
</span>
20y = -40
y = -2
x = 0

<span>3. What is the solution of the following system?-3x-2y=-12, 9x+6y=-9. 
</span><span>-3x-2y=-12
</span>y = -3/2 x + 6

<span>9x+6y=-9
</span>y = -3/2 x - 3/2

Since the slopes are equal then they are parallel lines so they never meet at one point.
