Answer:
a. the line that passes through the most data points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Regression analysis, is used to draw the line of‘ best fit’ through co-ordinates on a graph. The techniques used enable a mathematical equation of the straight line form y=mx+c to be deduced for a given set of co-ordinate values, the line being such that the sum of the deviations of the co-ordinate values from the line is a minimum, i.e.
The least-squares regression lines is the line of best fit
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall the formula for the sine of the double angle:
we know that 
, and that 
is in the interval between 0 and 90 degrees, where both the functions sine and cosine are non-negative numbers. Based on such, we can find using the Pythagorean trigonometric property that relates sine and cosine of the same angle, what 
is:
With this information, we can now complete the value of the sine of the double angle requested:

1) First try to find a perfect square number that divides evenly into the number under the square root. Perfect square numbers include 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, etc. because they are squares of the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, etc., respectively.
2) Separate the root expression into the two numbers you found as factors, with each number now under its own square root symbol. For example, sqrt(12) = sqrt(4) times sqrt(3).
3) Keep simplifying. The square root of a perfect square becomes just a number, without the radical square root symbol. sqrt(4)*sqrt(3) becomes 2*sqrt(3).
4) Check to see if anymore simplifying can be done, either by combining constants or finding another perfect square number that divides evenly into your factors. If no more simplifying can be done, you have your final "simplified radical form" (SRF) answer, 2*sqrt(3).
If there is a square root anywhere in the DENOMINATOR, you must "rationalize" the denominator, in other words, somehow get rid of the root in the bottom, in order for the expression to be considered simplest. For example, if you have 4/sqrt(2) you must use the trick of simplifying by multiplying the expression by sqrt(2)/sqrt(2). This will clear the square root in the bottom. If you multiply straight across, you would get 4*sqrt(2)/2, which simplifies again to 2*sqrt(2).
<span>If you have a more complicated fraction with a square root in the denominator, like (4+sqrt(3))/(5-sqrt(3)), you will need to use the "conjugate" to simplify. This means multiplying top and bottom by the expression in the denominator, but with the middle sign flipped. Here you would multiply by (5+sqrt(3))/(5+sqrt(3)), multiply straight across on top and bottom using FOIL-ing and distribution. Some terms will cancel in the bottom, leaving you with a simpler denominator that has no square roots.</span>
The correct answer is 14/7. We can find out which fraction is greater by simplifying them.
14/7 Given
2 14 divided by 7 is two
2/4 Given
1/2 Divide the numerator and denominator by 2
Since 2 is greater than 1/2, the correct answer is 14/7.
Thanks!
