this equation is in slope intercept form following the template of y=mx+b

because m is your slope, looking at the corresponding parts tells you 4/5 is the slope

Answer: 4/5

Step-by-step explanation: This equation is written in slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form where the <em>m</em> or the coefficient of the x term represents the slope of the line and the <em>b</em> or the constant term represents the y-intercept of the line.

By looking at this linear equation, we can confirm that the slope

will be equal to 4/5 since it's the coefficient of the x term.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Least square regression equation :

y = 102.50 + 0.65x + residual

y = predicted fare

x = distance in miles

Intercept = 102.50

Slope = 0.65

Distance in miles, x = 500 miles

y = 102.50 + 0.65(500) + 115

y = 102.50 + 325 + 115

y = 427.5 + 115

y = 542.50

Х- а<br>x-b<br>If f(x) = b.x-a÷b-a + a.x-b÷a - b<br>Prove that: f (a) + f(b) = f (a + b)

GenaCL600 [577]

Given:

Consider the given function:

$f(x)=\dfrac{b\cdot(x-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot(x-b)}{a-b}$

To prove:

$f(a)+f(b)=f(a+b)$

Solution:

We have,

$f(x)=\dfrac{b\cdot(x-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (x-b)}{a-b}$

Substituting $x=a$ , we get

$f(a)=\dfrac{b\cdot(a-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (a-b)}{a-b}$

$f(a)=\dfrac{b\cdot 0}{b-a}+\dfrac{a}{1}$

$f(a)=0+a$

$f(a)=a$

Substituting $x=b$ , we get

$f(b)=\dfrac{b\cdot(b-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (b-b)}{a-b}$

$f(b)=\dfrac{b}{1}+\dfrac{a\cdot 0}{a-b}$

$f(b)=b+0$

$f(b)=b$

Substituting $x=a+b$ , we get

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b\cdot(a+b-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (a+b-b)}{a-b}$

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b\cdot (b)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (a)}{-(b-a)}$

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b^2}{b-a}-\dfrac{a^2}{b-a}$

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b^2-a^2}{b-a}$

Using the algebraic formula, we get

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{(b-a)(b+a)}{b-a}$ $[\because b^2-a^2=(b-a)(b+a)]$

$f(a+b)=b+a$

$f(a+b)=a+b$ [Commutative property of addition]

Now,

$LHS=f(a)+f(b)$

$LHS=a+b$

$LHS=f(a+b)$

$LHS=RHS$

Hence proved.
