Giving the table below which shows <span>the percent increase of donations made on behalf of a non-profit organization for the period of 1984 to 2003.
</span>
Year:        1984     1989     1993     1997     2001     2003

Percent:    7.8       16.3       26.2      38.9     49.2      62.1

The scatter plot of the data is attached with the x-axis representing the number of years after 1980 and the y-axis representing the percent increase <span>of donations made on behalf of a non-profit organization.

To find the equation for the line of regression where </span><span>the x-axis representing the number of years after 1980 and the y-axis representing the percent increase of donations made on behalf of a non-profit organization.
\begin{center}&#10;\begin{tabular}{ c| c| c| c| }&#10; x & y & x^2 & xy \\ [1ex] &#10; 4 & 7.8 & 16 & 31.2 \\  &#10; 9 & 16.3 & 81 & 146.7 \\ &#10;13 & 26.2 & 169 & 340.6 \\ &#10;17 & 38.9 & 289 & 661.3 \\ &#10;21 & 49.2 & 441 & 1,033.2 \\ &#10;23 & 62.1 & 529 & 1,428.3 \\ [1ex]&#10;\Sigma x=87 & \Sigma y=200.5 & \Sigma x^2=1,525 & \Sigma xy=3,641.3  &#10;\end{tabular}&#10;\end{center}
</span>
Recall that the equation of the regression line is given by
y=a+bx
where
a= \frac{(\Sigma y)(\Sigma x^2)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma xy)}{n(\Sigma x^2)-(\Sigma x)^2} = \frac{200.5(1,525)-87(3,641.3)}{6(1,525)-(87)^2}  \\  \\ = \frac{305,762.5-316793.1}{9,150-7,569} = \frac{-11,030.6}{1,581} =-6.977
and
b= \frac{n(\Sigma xy)-(\Sigma x)(\Sigma y)}{n(\Sigma x^2)-(\Sigma x)^2} = \frac{6(3,641.3)-(87)(200.5)}{6(1,525)-(87)^2}  \\  \\ = \frac{21,847.8-17,443.5}{9,150-7,569} = \frac{4,404.3}{1,581} =2.7858

Thus, the equation of the regresson line is given by
y=-6.977+2.7858x

The graph of the regression line is attached.

Using the equation, we can predict the percent donated in the year 2015. Recall that 2015 is 35 years after 1980. Thus x = 35.

The percent donated in the year 2015 is given by
-6.977+2.7858(35)=-6.977+97.503=90.526

Therefore, the percent donated in the year 2015 is predicted to be 90.5

You have quarters and dimes that total $2.80. Your friend says it is possible that the number of quarters is 8 more than the num
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = number of dimes

2.80 = 0.1d + 0.25 (d + 8 )

2.80 = 0.1d + 0.25d + 2            Combine like terms

2.80 = 0.35d + 2                       Subtract 2 from both sides

0.80 = 0.35d                             Divide both sides by 0.35

d ≈ 2.29

No, it's not possible to have more quarters than dimes when the total is $2.80 because it's not possible to have part of a dime.
