<span>Using processing software (Excel) or even a decent scientific calculator. You input the values and generate the best fit cubic equation.
For number 1, the equation is
y = 8x10</span>⁻⁵ x³ - 0.0097 x² + 0.374 x + 1.083
where x is the number of years since 1900
y is the pounds cheese consumed

For number 2, the equation is
y = -3x10⁻⁵ x³ + 0.0028 x² + 0.2155 x + 1.7736

For number 3
P(-1) = 18

Write the equation of the line through each point.
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The equation would be y = -1/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to finding this equation needs to be solving the first equation for y so that we can find the slope.

-3x + y = 1

y = 3x + 1

Now that we have the slope of 3, we know the slope of a perpendicular line would be -1/3. This is because perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. We can then use this and the point to solve in point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -1/3(x - 6)

y - 2 = -1/3x + 2

y = -1/3x + 4

CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLZ
laiz [17]
Let x be the brick portion of the wall
Since x is 2/3 of the wall
Then x= (2/3)(2 3/4)
x= 11/6 = 1 5/6
So the brick portion of the wall is 1 5/6 feet

Note: that's not 15/6, it's a mixed fraction which is 1 + 5/6.. just to let you know

Solve for x does anyone know how to do this?​
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 4 angles in a quadrilateral = 360°

Sum the given angles and equate to 360

90 + 109 + 9x - 5 + 85 = 360, that is

9x + 279 = 360 ( subtract 279 from both sides )

9x = 81 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 9
