Given:
The data points are:
(1, 0), (2, 3), (3,1), (4,4), (5,5)
To find:
The equation of best fit line in the form of 
and then find the value of b.
Solution:
The general form of best fit line is:
...(i)
Where, m is the slope of best fit line and b is the y-intercept of the line.
Using the graphing calculator, we get the equation for the best fit line and the equation is
...(ii)
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get
Therefore, the value of b is equal to -0.7.
Answer: 2 d - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the number of dozen eggs in one refrigerator = d
According to the question,
There are 3 fewer dozen eggs in another refrigerator.
⇒ The number of eggs in another refrigerator = d - 3
Thus, the total dozen of eggs in both refrigerator = the number of dozen eggs in first refrigerator + the number of dozen eggs in second refrigerator
= d + d - 3
= 2 d - 3
Which is the required expression.
Answer: 4.7 is 10 as much as the number 0.47.
If you multiply 0.47 x 10 it will equal 4.7
Answer:
(4d - 3e)(10d - 3e)
Step-by-step explanation:
(4d - 3e)² + 6d(4d - 3e) ← factor out (4d - 3e) from each term
= (4d - 3e)(4d - 3e + 6d) ← collect like terms inside parenthesis
= (4d - 3e)(10d - 3e)
