2001 gallons used in 5 days, so the average for one day is 2001/5=400.2 gallons.
Consecutive numbers can be written as such:
n + (n + 1) = 73
Open the parentheses and simplify:
2n + 1 = 73
Subtract 1 from both sides:
2n = 72
Divide both sides by 2:
n = 36
The numbers are 36 and 37
What question 4 or 5?oh....
Answer:
The question is incomplete, so I will describe the sine regression model.
The function
y = 0.884 sin(0.245x - 1.093) + 0.400
correspond to the general equation:
y = a sin(bx - c) + d
where:
a = 0.884
b = 0.245
c = 1.093
d = 0.400
The amplitude of the function is computed as follows:
amplitude = |a| = 0.884
The period of the function is computed as follows:
period = 2π/|b| = 25.6456
The phase shift of the function is computed as follows:
phase shift = c/b = 4.4612 to the right (because there is a minus sign before c in the equation)
The vertical shift of the function is computed as follows:
vertical shift = d = 0.400
