The graph below shows the relationship between the number of months different students practiced tennis and the number of matche

s they won:
Part A: What is the approximate y-intercept of the line of best fit and what does it represent?

Part B: Write the equation for the line of best fit in the slope-intercept form and use it to predict the number of matches that could be won after 13 months of practice. Show your work and include the points used to calculate the slope.

Answer:

Part A : y-intercept is approximately 3.25

Part B : equation of the line is

y=\frac{7}{4}x+\frac{13}{4}

Slope is \frac{7}{4}

The number of matches would be 26 after 13 months of practice.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the given diagram,

The line is passes through the points (1, 5) and (5,12),

∵ equation of a line passes through the point (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is,

y-y_1=\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}(x-x_1)

Thus, the equation of the line would be,

y-5=\frac{12-5}{5-1}(x-1)

y-5=\frac{7}{4}(x-1)

y-5=\frac{7x}{4}-\frac{7}{4}

y=\frac{7}{4}x-\frac{7}{4}+5\implies y=\frac{7x}{4}+\frac{13}{4}

Part A : Now, if x = 0,

\implies y=\frac{13}{4}\approx 3.25

Hence, the y-intercept of the line would be approx 3.25,

Part B:

The slope intercept form of a line is,

y = mx + c

Where, m is the slope,

Hence, the slope intercept form of the line is,

y=\frac{7}{4}x+\frac{13}{4}

Having slope \frac{7}{4}

If x = 13,

y=\frac{7}{4}(13)+\frac{13}{4}= \frac{91}{4}+\frac{13}{4}=\frac{104}{4}=26

Therefore, the number of matches would be 26 after 13 months of practice.

I think it’s 12, if you take $360 and subtract the $120 deposit you get 240 and i divided that by 20 to get 12.

Can a sequence be both arithmetic and geometric?
artcher [175]
An aritmetic sequence is like this
a_n=a_1+d(n-1) where a1=first term and d=common difference

geometric is a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1} where a1=first term and r=common ratio


can it be both aritmetic and geometric
hmm, that means that the starting terms should be the same

therfor we need to solve d(n-1)=(r)^{n-1}
what values of d and r make all natural numbers of n true?
are there values that make all natural numbers for n true?

when n=1, then d(1-1)=0 and r^(1-1)=1, so already they are not equal

the answer is no, a sequence cannot be both aritmetic and geometric
